Dichroic Glass
Dichroic glass is defined as the property of having more than one color, which are reflected depending on the angle of incidence of light on its surface.
ITS CHARACTERISTICS ARE:
- Dichroic glass layers are durable and resistant to scratches and chemicals.
- They can be processed in the same way as conventional float glass and used in applications such as laminated or insulating glass.
Finally, dichroic glass combines science and art by having a fascinating visual experience due to its color changing and polarizing properties.

Separation into different colors: Some materials, such as dichroic mirrors and filters, can split a polychromatic light beam into several monochromatic beams with different wavelengths. These devices reflect light within a certain wavelength range and transmit light that does not belong to that range, thus separating the light into different colors. For example, dichroic prisms are used in video cameras to separate light rays into red, blue, and green components.
It refers to materials that can change the polarization states of a light ray. These materials experience variable absorption depending on the plane of polarization of the light that passes through them.
