1. An optical device comprising:

  • a first surface comprising a transmissive diffractive optical element;

    a second surface normal to the first surface; and

    a third surface arranged at an angle to the second surface, the third surface being reflective to light of a first state and transmissive to light of a second state,wherein the transmissive diffractive optical element is configured to receive a collimated input beam that is normally incident on the first surface, the collimated input beam comprising light having the first state, and to convert the collimated input beam into at least a first diffracted beam at a first diffraction angle such that the first diffracted beam is directed toward the third surface and is reflected by the third surface in a direction substantially parallel to the first surface.
