In this paper we present the work performed by AlphaMicron in the area of Adaptive Window application
using a guest-host liquid crystal configuration combined with liquid crystal based solar concentrator and high
efficiency photovoltae. The system can be used for Zero-Energy Building applications by providing a
dynamic solar heat gain coefficient. This allows the reduction of the energy loss through windows in mixed
climate regions.
