Abstract

A waveguide and an augmented reality (AR) device employing the waveguide are disclosed. The waveguide includes a waveguide body, an input-coupling element inputting a light into the waveguide body, a reflective element disposed at one side of the waveguide body and again inputting a light that is not input into the waveguide body or is transmitted through the waveguide body into the waveguide body, and an output-coupling element outputting a light propagating inside the waveguide body to an outside.
