 PROFILE
Count on Research Frontiers to keep you in the dark. The company's suspended-particle device (SPD) technology controls the flow of light. When microscopic particles in an SPD liquid suspension or film are electrically excited, they align. By varying voltage, the amount of light transmitted can be controlled. Applications include "smart windows" that control light transmission, eyewear, auto sunroofs and mirrors, and flat-panel displays for computers and other electronic devices. Research Frontiers licenses its technologies to such manufacturers as Dainippon Ink and Chemicals, General Electric, Hitachi, Material Sciences, and Polaroid. Physicist Robert Saxe founded Research Frontiers and owns 11% of the company.
