Firsthand insights into the current and future technology and large-scale applications of color- and opacity-changing optical materials

Chromogenics delivers a comprehensive overview of the industry-relevant scientific background of chromogenics and provides details on successful manufacturing techniques for the scalable fabrication of products, enabling readers to apply chromogenic materials in billion-dollar market segments such as the car industry (rear-view mirrors) and building and construction industries (self-tinting windows), as well as for individual end-user products such as sunglasses.

This work includes contributions from developers of chromogenic products from leading companies and industry-near research institutions such as Fraunhofer, Merck, Pleotint, and Gentex, Chromogenics explores topics including:



Electrochromics (both inorganic and polymeric), thermochromics, and suspended particle devices (SPD)
Encapsulated pigment devices, specific liquid crystals, and polymer dispersed liquid crystals (PDLC)
Vacuum web coaters and their large-area coatings, transparent electronic conductors, sputter coating processes, and pyrolytic doped tin oxide
Commercial technologies including pyrolytic deposition, magnetron sputtering, slot die coating, and doctor blade coating
Products such as switchable self-dimming mirrors and switchable glazing for glare reduction, solar energy control, and privacy glazing

Presenting state-of-the-art research in the field along with future outlooks, Chromogenics is an essential reference on the subject for materials scientists, physical chemists, applied physicists, and engineering scientists in industry.

After working on University- Industry projects at UC Berkeley -LBNL Carl M. Lampert, PhD, became a full-time consultant working for industry on chromogenics for architectural building glazing, automotive windows and sunroofs mirrors, train windows, and satellite surfaces for emissivity control in 2000. He has written many scholarly articles and has given lectures at companies such as Toyota Motors, Nissan Motors, Asahi Glass, DuPont, Applied Materials, JX Nippon Oil, Teijin, Toray Industries, and Dai Nippon Printing.
