Yasusei Yamada (Senior Researcher) and others of Energy Control Thin Film Group have developed a new switchable mirror with a visible transmittance of over 70% in the transparent state. Window glass ...

A new kind of mirror is emerging from quantum physics labs, one that exists not as a chunk of polished glass but as a ...

Researchers have uncovered a material perception mechanism with which humans discriminate between reflective and transparent materials (mirror and glass). The research team discovered that the brain ...

Transparent and reflective displays mightlook cool, but in terms of the home, theirapplications are limited. However, bricks and mortar shops looking for sometechnological wizardry to get shoppers ...

A new liquid-crystal device reflects different colors of light with increasing applied voltages, transitioning from mostly transparent to almost mirrorlike (ACS Photonics 2014, DOI: 10.1021/ph500259h) ...

Semi-transparent perovskite solar cells have been created that demonstrate high-power conversion efficiency and transmit visible light while blocking infrared light, making them great candidates for ...
