Abstract
A near-eye optical display system that may be utilized in mixed reality applications and devices includes a see-through waveguide on which diffractive optical elements (DOEs) are disposed that are configured for in-coupling, exit pupil expansion, and out-coupling. The optical display system includes a conformal coating that is thickness modulated over different areas of the display to enable tuning of the optical parameters such as refractive index and reflectivity to meet various design requirements. The conformal coating may also be utilized to enhance physical characteristics of the optical display system to thereby improve reliability and resist wear and damage from handling and exposure to environmental elements.
