Abstract

Abstract An electrically responsive light-controlling device in the form of a sealed thin tanklike member having a fluid suspension of light reflective dipoles therein. Electrically conductive layers are disposed on each major side of the tanklike member to selectively impress an electrical potential across the suspension to align the dipoles. A method of increasing the resistivity of the dipole suspension is also disclosed.
