The prismatic and reflective polarization films are generally achieved using so called DBEF films manufactured and supplied by 3M. [30] [31] These reflective polarization films using uniaxial oriented polymerized liquid crystals (birefringent polymers or birefringent glue) were invented in 1989 by Philips researchers Dirk Broer, Adrianus de ...
See-through graphics can be added to glass or other transparent panels to provide advertising, branding, architectural expression, one-way privacy and solar control. See-through graphics on the outside of a window See-through graphics: the view outside is unobstructed. Perforated self-adhesive window films are often used to create see-through ...
A typical window insulation film kit, consisting of plastic shrink film (folded-up) and a roll of double-sided tape. One commonly used film is a heat-shrink plastic which is attached to the window frame using double-sided pressure-sensitive tape. A hair dryer is used to remove creases and improve optical clarity.
The thicker window films known as safety and security window film are designed to perform under extreme conditions, and as such there are specific standard criteria these films should meet, such as American standards ANSI Z.97, CPSC 16 CFR 1201, Cat II (400 ft-lb), and the British Standards BS 6206 (Class A, B, C).
Some smart windows can self-adapt to heat or cool for energy conservation in buildings. [5] [6] [7] Smart windows can eliminate the need for blinds, shades or window treatments. [8] Some effects can be obtained by laminating smart film or switchable film onto flat surfaces using glass, acrylic or polycarbonate laminates. [9]
Ubiquitous Energy is a transparent solar technology company headquartered in Redwood City, California, which is located within Silicon Valley. Ubiquitous Energy designs and develops transparent solar technology for windows, electronics, and other applications. The company’s transparent solar technology is branded as UE Power™.
The combination of such reflective polarizers, and LED dynamic backlight control [23] make today's LCD televisions far more efficient than the CRT-based sets, leading to a worldwide energy saving of 600 TWh (2017), equal to 10% of the electricity consumption of all households worldwide or equal to 2 times the energy production of all solar ...
FROCs were used as both monolithic spectrum splitters and selective solar absorbers, which makes them suitable for hybrid solar-thermal energy generation. [10] They can be designed to reflect specific wavelength ranges, aligning with the energy band gap of photovoltaic cells, while absorbing the remaining solar spectrum.
