Experimental demonstration of angular multiplexing in volume optics: The volumetric design and three orthogonal cross-sections are shown. The upper-left inset shows the front face of the fabricated device as seen in a differential interference microscope. The images in green show the far??eld intensity captured for 0o, 8 o, and 15 o, laser illumination displaying the projection of the letters C and U.
