Abstract
An optical waveguide apparatus including an optical waveguide element and an optical recycling element is provided. The optical waveguide element includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The first surface or the second surface includes an optical structure. An incident light enters the optical waveguide element via the first surface and is transmitted to the second surface. The optical recycling element is disposed on the second surface of the optical waveguide element. The incident light is transmitted to the optical recycling element via the second surface. The optical recycling element changes a transmission direction of the incident light to generate a recycled light. The recycled light enters the optical waveguide element via the second surface and is transmitted to the first surface.
