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 ...

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

A group of physicists from Russia, Sweden, and the U.S. has demonstrated a highly unusual optical effect: They managed to "virtually" absorb light using a material that has no light-absorbing capacity ...

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, ...

Transparent electronics refer to the emerging field of developing electronic devices and circuits that are virtually invisible to the human eye. By using transparent materials such as conductive ...

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 ...

In most buildings, windows remain the most vulnerable part of the structure when it comes to energy loss. Worldwide, buildings account for roughly 40% of total energy use, much of it spent keeping ...

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, ...
