The safety glass used in the windshields of limousines and military vehicles needs to be hard, strong and shatter-proof, but also thin—both for visibility and to reduce its weight, a particularly important feature for aerospace vehicles.
The optical characteristics were created by a combination of thin metallic covering and subwavelength properties of Si nanoscale or microscale texture. It was demonstrated that altering the depth of the covering led to considerable IR absorbance increase ...
The reduction in resources has been compared to using one liter of water and one kilogram of material instead of the entire volumes of water in all oceans to test material corresponding to the entire mass of Mount Everest.
Cantilevers in microelectromechanical systems are significant for non-labeling, real-time detection, positioning, and specificity. Rectangular solid, rectangular hollow and triangular microcantilevers were made,
