A robust smart window: reversibly switching from high transparency to angle-independent structural color display.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A smart window is fabricated from a composite consisting of elastomeric poly(dimethylsiloxane) embedded with a thin layer of quasi-amorphous silica nanoparticles. The smart window can be switched from the initial highly transparent state to opaqueness and displays angle-independent structural color via mechanical stretching. The switchable optical property can be fully recovered after 1000 stretching/releasing cycles.

Robust Optimal Control of Flexible Spacecraft During Slewing Maneuvers
In this paper, slewing maneuver of a flexible spacecraft with large angle of rotation is considered and assuming structural frequency uncertainties a robust minimum-time optimal control law is developed. Considering typical bang-bang control commands with multiple symmetrical switches, a parameter optimization procedure is introduced to find the control forces/torques. The constrained minimizat...
متن کاملP-169: Photoaligned Bistable FLC Displays with Birefringent Color Switching
In this paper, color switching bistable ferroelectric liquid crystal (FLC) displays have been studied. Memorizable colors were obtained. The spectra, chromaticity and viewing characteristics of the displays were studied in simulation. Using results of the simulations we fabricated prototypes of Black&Green, Black&Yellow, Blue&Yellow, and Green&Pink FLC displays. 1. Introduction Recently, there ...
متن کاملEnhancement of Robust Tracking Performance via Switching Supervisory Adaptive Control
When the process is highly uncertain, even linear minimum phase systems must sacrifice desirable feedback control benefits to avoid an excessive ‘cost of feedback’, while preserving the robust stability. In this paper, the problem of supervisory based switching Quantitative Feedback Theory (QFT) control is proposed for the control of highly uncertain plants. According to this strategy, the unce...
متن کاملGeneration of monomeric reversibly switchable red fluorescent proteins for far-field fluorescence nanoscopy.
Reversibly switchable fluorescent proteins (RSFPs) are GFP-like proteins that may be repeatedly switched by irradiation with light from a fluorescent to a nonfluorescent state, and vice versa. They can be utilized as genetically encodable probes and bear large potential for a wide array of applications, in particular for new protein tracking schemes and subdiffraction resolution microscopy. How...
متن کاملElectrokinetic pixels with biprimary inks for color displays and color-temperature-tunable smart windows.
We report on the advanced implementation of the biprimary color system in applications where subtractive color is performed inside a single pixel to alter the magnitude and color of reflection (electronic paper displays) or the optical transmission and color temperature (smart windows). A novel device structure can switch between four states: clear, black, either of two complementary colors fro...
