Absolute pogloschenieBritanskaya research company Surrey NanoSystems introduced innovative material Vantablack, which absorbs 99% and 965 reflects only 0, 035% of incident light. Such "The Ultra" agent can be used also for the manufacture of solar cells improved performance. It is reported online resource GreenEvolution.
Vantablack consists of tiny carbon tubes. It has rightly been dubbed the darkest material in the world. If we imagine the clothes created from such material, the wearer would be perceived two-dimensional, like a shadow - the human eye can not perceive would curves tissue.
Furthermore, Vantablack that hardly reflects direct light and significantly reduces the level of the scattered light is seven and a half times better than copper conducts heat and is 10 times stronger than steel. It is not surprising that the new invention, there are lots of possible applications.
In particular, they can be masked military installations or cover the inside of the highly sensitive telescopes that detect faint and distant objects. Finally, there is an option to achieve through Vantablack improve performance solar panels, the material used to make the panels.
Attempts to create a completely dark material in the world has been made more than once. For example, in 2008 the development team of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (USA) presented the material that reflects only 0, 045% of the light waves. However, British scientists and engineers from Surrey Nanosystems managed to surpass this achievement.
