For the past three years, Delia Milliron and her team at the Cockrell School of Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin have been working on electrochromic smart materialsthat look like ordinary glass, yet can selectively keep out light or heat. Now the UT Austin team have come up with a new, flexible, smart-window material using a low-temperature fabrication process that makes it easier and cheaper to use than previous iterations.

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.
2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.
3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.
4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
