Optical filters are devices that selectively transmit light of different wavelengths, usually implemented as plane glass or plastic devices in the optical path which are either dyed in the bulk or ...
Phyllosilicates are sheet Silicate minerals, formed by parallel sheets of silicate tetrahedra with Si2O5 or a 2:5 ratio.
Lithium batteries are disposable (primary) batteries that have lithium metal or lithium compounds as an anode. They stand apart from other batteries in their high charge density (long life) and hig...
