Next-Generation Low-Energy Smart Windows: Innovative Architecture for Liquid Crystal Confinement
Researchers have developed low-energy switchable smart windows using a unique architecture called hierarchical double networks of polymers. These windows operate between low and high transmittance and are controlled by light and temperature. The networks confine liquid crystals and allow for electric switching between different states. The windows have potential applications in privacy windows and offer high spatial resolution. The study was published in the Journal of Material Chemistry C.
Shift in Indian Summer Monsoons Revealed: Sediment Study on Kaas Plateau
