Abstract: Abstract Self-switching smart windows, which can be switched between the transparent and opaque states by ambient conditions, have applications in buildings, automobiles, and switchable sunglasses. In particular, technologies for transmittance control without light scattering are… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2022.977429
Abstract: To disclose the net effect of light on microalgal growth in photobioreactors, self-shading and mixing-induced light–dark cycles must be minimized and discerned from the transient phenomena of acclimation. In this work, we performed experiments of… read more here.
