MIT develops anti-fog, self-cleaning, no-glare glass
Glass has been used by humans for thousands and thousands of years, and we just keep figuring out how to make it better. Researchers at MIT recently developed a glass that doesn’t fog, doesn’t have glare and doesn’t get spots or dirt stuck to it.
The features of the glass are the result of a pattern on the surface, which the MIT team applied to the surface via special etching and coating techniques. The pattern, made of nanoscale cones with a base width of 200 nanometers, is created by coating the glass with thin layers that include a photoresist layer, then the new layer is overlain with a grid that acts as a guide for the etching, which comes next and produces the aforementioned conical shapes.
