New Nanostructure Technology Provides Advances In Eyeglass, Solar Energy Performance
Chemical engineers at Oregon State University have invented a new technology to deposit “nanostructure films” on various surfaces, which may first find use as coatings for eyeglasses that cost less and work better.
Ultimately, the technique may provide a way to make solar cells more efficiently produce energy.
The films reduce the reflectance of light, and in [...]
