Unconventional smart windows: Materials, structures and designs

Yang Zhou et al.

Summary: As populations grow and energy demands increase, building energy consumption accounts for over 40% of global energy consumption, with heating, ventilation, and air conditioning comprising 50%. Improving window energy efficiency can reduce energy consumption by adjusting sunlight and heat radiation. The advancements in smart window technology have been significant, but research on humidity-reactive mechanochromic and smart magnetochromic windows is lacking.
