A laminated glass pane (1) comprises a first glass pane (10A), a second glass pane (10B) and an optically active film (20) laminated between the glass panes. The optically active film comprises a first conductive layer and a second conductive layer separated by at least one intermediate layer. The first and second conductive layers are contacted by a first (12A) and second (12B) connection wire, respectively. The optically active film is fully covered by both glass panes. Both the first and the second connection wires protrude out from the active film passing a first edge (14A) of the first glass pane in a same direction (18). The second glass pane protrudes outside the first edge of the first glass pane in the direction by an off-set distance (16). The off-set distance is at least equal to a smallest width of the first and second connection wires.

A method is provided that integrates an autonomous energy harvesting capacity in a mobile device in an aesthetically neutral manner. A unique set of structural features combine to implement a hidden energy harvesting system on a surface of the mobile device body structure or casing to provide electrical power to the mobile device, and/or to individually electrically-powered components in the mobile device. Color-matched, image-matched and/or texture-matched optical layers are formed over energy harvesting components, including photovoltaic energy collecting components. Optical layers are tuned to scatter selectable wavelengths of electromagnetic energy back in an incident direction while allowing remaining wavelengths of electromagnetic energy to pass through the layers to the energy collecting components below. The layers appear opaque when observed from a light incident side, while allowing at least 50%, and as much as 80+%, of the energy impinging on the energy or incident side to pass through the layer.

A method for laminating an assembled sandwich structure consisting of a functional part (4) and one glass article (5) separated from an outer surface of the functional part by a laminating film (6) by heating with electromagnetic radiation in a vacuum is described. In the method equal temperatures of all sandwich components are provided by selection of the optimal radiation frequencies. The optimal vacuum level is provided following the laminating film temperature.
