Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to the introduction of an encapsulation material into an optical device formed with a same thickness distribution at one or more eyepiece areas across a substrate. The target thickness distribution formed in at least each eyepiece area reduces variation of substrate thickness from substrate to substrate. Forming the target thickness distribution in the substrate and the index-matched layer with maskless patterning such as gray-tone lithography and inkjet printing eliminates subsequent processing steps to achieve the target thickness distribution. An encapsulation material between the optical device layer and the index-matched layer will protect the index-matched layer from damage.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to optical device fabrication using methods of discrete grating assembly and optical interconnection. Discrete gratings corresponding to one of an input coupling grating, an intermediate grating, or an output coupling grating of an optical device are formed on separated donor substrates. The donor substrates are diced into individual gratings and adhered to an optical device substrate. An inkjet material is disposed between the gratings to optically interconnect the portions of the optical device.
