  • Window for aircraft with microstructure as a sunscreen
    Patent number: 8640991
    Abstract: An aircraft window includes a microstructure so that light rays with a correspondingly large angle of incidence are reflected back to the exterior region. By contrast, light rays with another, i.e. smaller, angle of incidence are allowed to pass almost without hindrance. The microstructures are designed as optical prisms, wherein the order of magnitude of the prisms is in the region of light wave lengths.
    Type: Grant
