Abstract

La présente invention concerne un élément de diffraction translucide pour l'utilisation dans un affichage par projection de globe oculaire qui comporte une surface rectangulaire ; étant donné que la profondeur du côté inférieur du rectangle à partir du côté supérieur de celui-ci requiert une précision de l'ordre de quelques mm pour la fabrication, cette dernière n'est pas facile. Dans un élément de diffraction de transmission comportant des saillies et des renfoncements formés de manière cyclique sur la surface d'un substrat translucide, l'erreur tolérable dans la profondeur de structure réticulaire peut être augmentée en employant une forme trapézoïdale telle que les côtés entre le côté inférieur et le côté supérieur de la saillie et du renfoncement comportent un angle d'inclinaison prédéterminé par rapport à la normale quant à la surface. Par conséquent, un élément de diffraction facile à fabriquer peut être mis à disposition.
