Display device including light waveguide using meta structure and electronic device including the same

Abstract

A display device includes: an image projector including an image forming device and a meta-lens module and configured to output image light formed by the image forming device; and a meta-waveguide configured to transfer the image light output from the image projector, to an observer's field of view, the meta-waveguide including waveguide element configured to totally reflect light inside, an input coupler including a plurality of first nanostructures forming a first phase gradient in a first direction and configured to couple the image light from the image projector to an inside of the waveguide element, and an output coupler including a plurality of second nanostructures forming a second phase gradient in a second direction different from the first direction and configured to output the light coupled to the inside of the waveguide element by the input coupler, to an outside of the waveguide element.
