Research Frontiers Inc.Profile date: 2024-12-30 Research Frontiers Inc. is a technology company specializing in the research, development, and licensing of its patented SPD-SmartGlassŪ technology. Their primary focus is on smart materials, specifically electrochromic materials used in the creation of electronically controllable windows. While they utilize various materials in their processes, graphene is not explicitly highlighted as a core component of their existing SPD-SmartGlassŪ technology on their website. The company's flagship product, SPD-SmartGlassŪ, is a type of electronically switchable glass that can dynamically adjust its light transmission properties. This allows for control over the amount of light and heat passing through the glass, offering benefits such as glare reduction, improved energy efficiency, and enhanced privacy. The technology employs suspended particle devices (SPDs) to achieve this light modulation. These SPDs consist of microscopic particles suspended in a liquid crystal medium which, when an electrical current is applied, alter their alignment, thus changing the glass's transparency.
