A team of researchers at the University of Minnesota has developed a next-generation transparent and efficient semiconductor material. This breakthrough could have enormous ramifications for improving ...

A team at the University of Colorado Boulder has earned a Guinness World Record for the most transparent material ever created. The lightweight, gel-like material made mostly of air is 97% to 99% ...

Researchers in the Republic of Korea are pushing smart-window design beyond glass. Professor Sung Ho Song at Kongju National ...

QUEZON CITY, Philippines — A single droplet of acid, a small electrical current, and ten minutes are the surprisingly modest ...

Hypergap materials reveal a second transparent region above the bandgap, overturning assumptions about optical limits and enabling low-loss light control, wavelength conversion, and new photonic ...

Transparent materials can generate electricity when exposed to light, even if they have a vanishingly small absorption of such light. Floquet Fermi liquid states are a variant of Fermi liquids ...

A market survey for transparent electronics reported by IDTechEx predicts market growth of twenty billion dollars by 2041. According to the report, thin film transistors (TFTs), display devices, ...

Existing methods to detect microscopic scratches and imperfections on transparent materials are costly and time-consuming. To tackle this problem, researchers developed a novel non-contact, ...

Can you imagine having a smartphone with a wooden touchscreen? Or a house with wooden windows? Probably not -- unless you've heard of transparent wood. Made by modifying wood's natural structure, this ...
