We use the zebrafish model to study β - cell development due to the small size and
optical transparency of its embryos / larvae, as well as the ease of the genetic and chemical - genetic manipulations, including the ability to conduct large - scale small molecule screens.
This material — available in film form or as a varnish for coatings — features unmatched optical and mechanical properties, including 90 -
percent optical transparency and 2H surface hardness.
For engineering, the applications of the hybrid rubber that take advantage of its exceptional combination of
optical transparency, toughness, and self - healing ability remain to be explored.
Graphene is a two - dimensional (2D) one - atom - thick sheet of carbon crystals that has many extraordinary properties in terms of its strength, electrical and thermal conductivity, and
optical transparency.
Using embryos of zebrafish, which was selected for its rapid development and
optical transparency, they could show that the mechanical properties of the tissue change along the body axis, facilitating the extension of the body at its posterior end.
Gallium oxide is the archetypal example for its ability to handle extremely high voltages and
its optical transparency in the deep ultraviolet region, thus promising a generation of electronic components with unprecedented performance.
On the way to lasing, the material transitions through the state of «
optical transparency» when light is neither absorbed nor amplified.
They discovered that by adding ionic liquid — a kind of liquid salt — they can modify
the optical transparency of single - walled carbon nanotube films in a controlled pattern.
A step ahead is a similar multilayer but with a Ag mesh instead of a film, with benefits in terms of
optical transparency and mechanical flexibility.
Enjoy ground - breaking features like high response sensitivity, self - healing durability, and non-yellowing, and
optical transparency.
