A research team led by SUTD has created nanoscale glass structures with near-perfect reflectance, overturning long-held ...

Unlike normal glass, which reflects some of the incoming light, the new so-called metamaterial --composed of a grid of gold or silver nanocoils embedded in a prism-shaped, glass-like material ...

Scientists in South Korea have developed a reversible electrochemical mirror (REM) that can switch between a transparent and reflective state, and remain reflective for up to two hours without ...

Why does light reflect in a mirror but go straight through glass? Thomas Fox, Fortrose, Highland, UK Mirrors such as those found in a bathroom tend to be made from a sheet of transparent glass or ...

Citation: Stretchable, transparent heater made from metallic glass (2016, January 7 ... Glass nanostructures reflect nearly all visible light, challenging photonics assumptions.

While glass can lend itself to multiple applications, glass is often viewed as too transparent a medium t ... At Home: Let glass reflect your decor choices Unusual shapes, colors can make a statement.

A research team affiliated with UNIST has unveiled a method of supplying energy directly from glass of buildings, cars, and mobile devices through transparent solar cells. The study is published ...

The previous answer was wrong to claim materials are transparent or reflective depending on whether they have a crystalline structure. Mercury is liquid, not crystalline, and is reflective ...
