Double-Layer Metasurface Integrated with Micro-LED for Naked-Eye 3D Display

Naked-eye 3D micro-LED display combines the characteristics of 3D display with the advantages of micro-LED. However, the 3D micro-LED display is still at the conceptual stage, limited by its intrinsic emission properties of large divergence angle and non-coherence, as well as difficulties in achieving large viewing angles with high luminous efficiency. In this work, we propose a double-layer metasurface film integrating functions of collimation with multiple deflections, constituting a micro-LED naked-eye 3D display system. The system is characterized through numerical simulations using the 3D finite-difference time-domain method. The simulation results show that the double-layer metasurface film restricts 90% of the emitted light of the micro-LED to the vicinity of the 0° angle, improving its spatial coherence. Subsequently, a large-angle, low-crosstalk outgoing from -45° to 45° is achieved, while providing a deflection efficiency of over 80% and a pixel density of up to 605. We believe this design provides a feasible approach for realizing naked-eye 3D micro-LED displays with a large field of view, low crosstalk, and high resolution.
