Near-eye displays with enhanced images quality are developed with planar optics employing Pancharatnam-Berry (PB) phase. Advanced broadband PB deflectors and lenses are fabricated to enhance the apparent pixel density and reduce the chromatic aberrations in immersive near-eye displays. Both simulation and experimental results are presented.
