Abstract

Abstract : Front Cover : In article number 2100272, Liran Ma, Jianbin Luo, and co‐workers, show that intelligent glass can quickly and freely switch between transparency and opacity based on a hydrated poly( N ‐isopropylacrylamide) film triggered by white light. The poly( N ‐isopropylacrylamide) molecules are dissolved in water (transparent) below 32.5 °C and separated from water (opaque) over 32.5 °C. This intelligent glass not only inspires significant applications in privacy protection but also opens an avenue for environmental friendliness.
