STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES AND METHODS FOR MAKING AND USING STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES
The present disclosure provides for articles that can exhibit structural colors through the use of an optical stack and a cover release layer, where the cover release layer is disposed on an externally (or outwardly) facing surface of the optical stack. The optical stack can be disposed on a substrate, which can be disposed on a surface of an article or the optical stack can be disposed on a surface of the article. The cover release layer can be disposed on the optical stack on the side opposite the substrate or article surface so it is on the externally facing surface and can be viewed by an observer. When exposed to visible light, the optical stack imparts a structural color, where the structural color is visible color produced, at least in part, through optical effects (e.g., through scattering, refraction, reflection, interference, and/or diffraction of visible wavelengths of light). The structural color can have a single color or be multicolor, including iridescent. The cover release layer is disposed over (e.g., at least portions) of the optical stack so that the structural color is not present since it is not exposed to light, but when the cover release layer is removed, the optical stack can impart structural color. The cover release layer can be removed by abrasion (e.g., intentional or unintentional), where the abrasion can be applied to the cover release layer that causes separation of the cover release layer from the optical stack.
Night Vision System for Vehicles
A vehicle vision system, disposed for use in either non-convertibles or convertibles vehicles, and for use in either hardtop or soft top systems. The system includes window panels that convert from day vision to night vision system mechanism and the system may include one window panel or two window panels. The rear window (day vision) will depress to a back compartment and the night vision window will elevate to replace the day window. In an additional embodiment, the night depress to a front compartment and the night vision window will elevate to replace the night window. This will also be performed vice versa for both the front and rear window. Side mirrors will also convert at the same time the window panels convert from day light to night light system mechanism, and vice versa.
