Transparent
Transparent is a term that refers to a material or substance that allows light to pass through it. This property is often used in various fields such as physics, optics, and materials science.
Physics[edit | edit source]
In physics, transparency is the physical property of allowing light to pass through a material without being scattered. On a macroscopic scale, the photons can be said to follow Snell's Law.
Optics[edit | edit source]
In optics, a transparent material is defined as a material that allows light to pass through it in a straight line. Light is only changed by the material in terms of its speed.
Materials Science[edit | edit source]
In materials science, transparency is an important factor in the development of materials for various applications. This includes applications in optics, electronics, and energy production.
