Glass coated with micro-thin layers of metallic films to substantially reduce solar-heat gain by reflecting the sun’s rays, resulting in savings in both the initial and operating costs of air-conditioning systems. The reduced light transmission also diminishes interior glare and brightness.  1, record 1, English, - reflective%20glass

Protections solaires. Du fait de la faible inertie thermique des façades légères, ce problème revêt une importance plus grande qu'en façade traditionnelle. [...] Des protections [...] spécifiques des façades légères sont mises en œuvre et se développent dans deux directions : montages de vitrages plus performants (réfléchissants, absorbants, etc., telles que glaces teintées Parsol, Polyglass); mise en place de dispositifs pare-soleil [...]  2, record 1, French, - vitrage%20r%C3%A9fl%C3%A9chissant

From a remote outpost on the summit of Hawaii's dormant Mauna Kea volcano, astronomers at the W. M. Keck Observatory probe the deepest regions of the Universe with unprecedented power and precision. Their instruments are the twin Keck Telescopes, the world's largest optical and infrared telescopes. Each stands eight stories tall and weighs 300 tons, yet operates with nanometer precision. At the heart of each Keck Telescope is a revolutionary primary mirror. Ten meters in diameter, the mirror is composed of 36 hexagonal segments that work in concert as a single piece of reflective glass.  2, record 2, English, - Keck%20telescope

La conception du télescope de Keck marque une innovation importante : la surface réfléchissante de l'instrument est composée d'une mosaïque de trente-six miroirs hexagonaux, tous orientables individuellement grâce à trois vérins. Elle équivaut à un miroir primaire de 10 m de diamètre, sans en avoir le poids [...] Un second télescope - Keck II - doit être mis en service au sommet du Mauna Kea.  2, record 2, French, - t%C3%A9lescope%20Keck

A flexible organic light-emitting diode(... or FOLED) is an organic light-emitting device designed with flexible material, such as a reflective metal foil or clear plastic film, instead of the heavier glass used in cathode ray tube(CRT) computer displays. FOLEDs are very useful for portable devices, such as laptop computers and wall-mounted screens because they are relatively easy and inexpensive to produce and require little energy.  4, record 3, English, - flexible%20organic%20light%2Demitting%20diode

Glaces teintées en surface et réfléchissantes. Ce sont des glaces, claires ou filtrantes sur une face desquelles on a introduit des ions métalliques ou déposé à chaud des oxydes métalliques leur conférant ainsi des propriétés optiques particulières. (...) La glace Parélio. (...) C'est une glace réfléchissante.
