Abstract

An image guide comprising glass or plastic planar substrate, a first hologram area, a second hologram area, and a third hologram area which are formed on the substrate as surface relief grating, period and direction of diffraction structure of the first, second, and third hologram areas have a relationship which is a sum of grating vectors of the first, second, and third hologram areas becomes zero, depth of diffraction structure on the first hologram area is a uniform in the own hologram area, and depth of diffraction structure on the second or third hologram area is chirped in the own hologram area increases luminance and uniformity of virtual image.
