1. An optical waveguide comprising:
- at least two TIR surfaces and containing a grating of a first prescription configured such that an input TIR light with a first angular range along a first propagation direction undergoes at least two diffractions within said grating and undergoes a change in propagation direction from said first propagation direction to a second propagation direction, wherein each ray from said first angular range and its corresponding diffracted rays lie on a diffraction cone of said grating, wherein each diffraction provides a unique TIR angular range along said second propagation direction.

Abstract
An optical waveguide comprises at least two TIR surface and contains a grating. Input TIR light with a first angular range along a first propagation direction undergoes at least two diffractions at the grating. Each diffraction directs light into a unique TIR angular range along a second propagation direction.
