SUNUM researcher Dr. Eric Tan and his collaborators have shown how a thermo-responsive polymer and functional coating technology turn a standard window into a smart window when sandwiched together in a window panel.
The research team shows that the self-adaptive window reduces the indoor temperature to 9 °C on a hot day. Thus, helping to reduce the energy consumption required for indoor cooling. The research was published as a paper, titled "Broadband light and heat management with a self-regulating and user-controlled thermochromic smart window" in Cell Reports Physical Science.
Authors include Dr. Eric Tan, SUNUM researcher Dr. Hande E. Cıngıl, our technical specialist Dr. B. Tuğba Çamiç, Ceren Mitmit from Sabancı University Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences and Dr. Merve Mocan from Gebze Technical University Materials Science and Engineering Department.
We congratulate the researchers for their success.
