  • Publication number: 20240140075
    Abstract: A window pane includes a transmission control layer including a first glass sheet, a second glass sheet, and a liquid crystal material disposed between the first glass sheet and the second glass sheet. Each of the first glass sheet and the second glass sheet has a thickness of about 1 mm or less. A first panel is bonded to the first glass sheet of the transmission control layer. A second panel is bonded to the second glass sheet of the transmission control layer. The transmission control layer is disposed between the first panel and the second panel. The liquid crystal material is controllable to adjust a transmittance of the window pane.
