    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide for devices and methods of measuring a pitch P of optical device structures and an orientation angle ϕ of the optical device structures. One embodiment of the system includes an optical arm coupled to an arm actuator. The optical arm includes a light source. The light source emits a light path operable to be diffracted to the stage. The optical arm further includes a first beam splitter and a second beam splitter positioned in the light path. The first beam splitter directs the light path through a first lens and the second beam splitter directs the light path through a first dove prism and a second lens. The optical arm further includes a first detector operable to detect the light path from the first lens and second detector operable to detect the light path from the second lens.

    Abstract: A method of optical device metrology is provided. The method includes providing a first type of light into a first optical device during a first time period; measuring a quantity of the first type of light transmitted from a first location on the top surface or the bottom surface during the first time period; coating at least a portion of an edge of the one or more edges with a first coating of optically absorbent material during a second time period that occurs after the first time period; providing the first type of light into the first optical device during a third time period that occurs after the second time period; and measuring a quantity of the first type of light transmitted from the first location on the top surface or the bottom surface during the third time period.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to a method for forming an optical component, for example, for a virtual reality or augmented reality display device. In one embodiment, the method includes forming a first layer on a substrate, and the first layer has a first refractive index. The method further includes pressing a stamp having a pattern onto the first layer, and the pattern of the stamp is transferred to the first layer to form a patterned first layer. The method further includes forming a second layer on the patterned first layer by spin coating, and the second layer has a second refractive index greater than the first refractive index. The second layer having the high refractive index is formed by spin coating, leading to improved nanoparticle uniformity in the second layer.
