Nanoparticles such as TiO2 with high refractive-index of n∼2.0 in visible light are increasingly sought after for applications in XR waveguide designs for improving field-of-view. Our formulations with TiO2 nanocrystals can create diffractive optical elements and planarized films with n≅2.0 at 520 nm. With high-n by new nanocrystals using “Core-Shell” technology, we offer significantly improved resistance to near-UV ...
