(Nanowerk Spotlight) The search for novel transparent electrode materials with good stability, high transparency and excellent conductivity is driven by the required trade-off between transparency and ...

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 ...

Scientists from the Imperial College London and Karlsruhe Institute of Technology have investigated the impact of soiling on solar module glass surfaces in semi-desert regions. They looked at how ...

KAIST researchers have developed a novel wearable strain sensor based on the modulation of optical transmittance of a carbon nanotube (CNT)-embedded elastomer. The sensor is capable of sensitive, ...

A Trombe wall is a passive solar building feature that enhances thermal efficiency. Positioned on the sun-facing side of a structure, it consists of a wall made from materials like brick, stone, or ...

Scientists measured the light transmittance of the eyelids when the eyes are closed, and found that perceived closed-eye brightness is significantly stronger than previously reported. The influence of ...

Plastics are broadly classified into thermoplastics and thermosetting plastics, and thermoplastics are further classified based on mechanical strength and heat resistant properties. Aside from these ...

The dependence of the transmittance on PMMA exhibits strong absorption in the range of 200.0−415.0 nm wavelength. The hybrid scintillators show a high transmissivity of 70.0%~90.0% above 415.0 nm, ...

Diamonds, which captivate the eyes of many people, are either natural or synthetic. Natural diamonds are mined from the earth and synthetic diamonds are artificially made. In recent years, it has ...
