Abstract:This paper addresses global warming concerns stemming from energy consumption, particularly in buildings, which contribute 40% to global energy use. Smart windows that reflect near-infrared radiation have emerged as a solution to reduce indoor temperatures. Chiral nematic liquid crystals (CLCs) play a crucial role in this technology. Numerous approaches have been explored for regulating indoor temperatures using liquid crystals. Despite achieving ideal transparency, rapid switching speeds, negligible power con… Show more
