  2. See-through display - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/See-through_display

    Unlike transparent LCDs and OLEDs that requires integrated electronic modules to process visual signals or emit their own light, a passive transparent display uses a projector as the external light source to project images and videos onto a transparent medium embedded with resonance nanoparticles that selectively scatter the projected light. [21]

  3. Light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light

    The study of light and the interaction of light and matter is termed optics. The observation and study of optical phenomena such as rainbows and the aurora borealis offer many clues as to the nature of light. A transparent object allows light to transmit or pass through.

  4. Cosmic microwave background - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_microwave_background

    The anisotropy, or directional dependency, of the cosmic microwave background is divided into two types: primary anisotropy, due to effects that occur at the surface of last scattering and before; and secondary anisotropy, due to effects such as interactions of the background radiation with intervening hot gas or gravitational potentials, which ...

  5. Transparency and translucency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transparency_and_translucency

    When infrared light of these frequencies strikes an object, the energy is reflected or transmitted. If the object is transparent, then the light waves are passed on to neighboring atoms through the bulk of the material and re-emitted on the opposite side of the object. Such frequencies of light waves are said to be transmitted. [10] [11]

  6. Prism (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_(optics)

    An optical prism is a transparent optical element with flat, polished surfaces that are designed to refract light. At least one surface must be angled — elements with two parallel surfaces are not prisms. The most familiar type of optical prism is the triangular prism, which has a triangular base and rectangular sides.

  7. Optics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optics

    Light reflected by shiny transparent materials is partly or fully polarised, except when the light is normal (perpendicular) to the surface. It was this effect that allowed the mathematician Étienne-Louis Malus to make the measurements that allowed for his development of the first mathematical models for polarised light.

  8. Smart glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_glass

    This results in the translucent, "milky white" appearance. When a voltage is applied to the electrodes, the electric field formed between the two transparent electrodes on the glass causes the liquid crystals to align, allowing light to pass through the droplets with very little scattering and resulting in a transparent state.

  9. MicroLED - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MicroLED

    Samsung’s microLED display technology transfers micrometer-scale LEDs into LED modules, resulting in what resembles wall tiles composed of mass-transferred clusters of almost microscopic lights. [95] [96] Samsung's Transparent MicroLED (debuted at 2024 CES) Samsung has also debuted at 2024 CES their Transparent MicroLED display. [97]
