An interference structure having a nanovoided hologram material is described. The nanovoided hologram material may have an index of refraction difference of approximately 0.4. The interference structure may include about 10% to 90% nanovoids by volume. The interference structure may be formed using a mixture of a monomer, an initiator, and solvent. The mixture may be disposed on a substrate and irradiated with two sources of light spaced apart from each other and shining on the same region of the mixture to generate an interference pattern in the mixture, leading to the selective polymerization of regions of the mixture where there is constructive interference of light. Various other devices, methods, and systems are also disclosed.

An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a holographic optical element and a manufacturing method of a holographic optical element including holographic gratings, the manufacturing method including: a step (a) of forming a photosensitive substrate by coating one surface of a substrate with a photosensitive resin; and a step (b) of recording the holographic gratings by irradiating each of one surface and the other surface of the photosensitive substrate with laser light, wherein in the step (a), the photosensitive resin is applied so that a height of a photosensitive resin coating layer varies along a predetermined direction.

The present disclosure relates to a hologram medium comprising: a polymer substrate including a polymer resin in which a silane-based functional group is located in a main chain or a branched chain, wherein a fine pattern is formed on at least one surface of the polymer substrate, and an optical element.

An optical component (1) comprising a planar metasurface (2) arranged on a surface of a first substrate (3) and a top layer (4) arranged in a height direction Z above the metasurface (2), wherein the metasurface (2) comprises an array (9) of scattering structures (5, 5a, 5b), wherein the array (9) is a repeating pattern of unit cells (7), wherein a unit cell (7) comprises at least two different scattering structures wherein the optical properties of the metasurface (2) are controllable by a control signal, wherein first scattering structures (5, 5a) are at least partially contacting a layer of a first substance (6a) having a first refractive index and second scattering structures (5, 5b) are at least partially contacting a layer of a second substance (6b), which differs from the first substance (6a) and which provides a variable refractive index depending on the control signal.

A metasurface structure including an array of sub-wavelength structures including a phase change material (PCM), encoded with different holographic images based on different phases of the PCM, the different phases including a first phase and a second phase. Phase transition between the first phase and the second phase occurs when the metasurface structure is thermally tuned. Each sub-wavelength structure in the array has a distinctive phase difference between the first phase and the second phase of the PCM.
