Hello all,
I would like to know a method to trap light. That is, it should be pretty simple and non-electric. It doesn't need to trap all light, just part of it at the least. It should also be able to give out light by itself if certain conditions are met (which conditions do not really matter as long as it is possible for the average person). It also cannot be a fluorescent or luminescent material and the likes. My idea was to create a box that has partial mirrors, like those windows where depending on which side you are, you see your reflection or you see through depending on the brightness inside and outside the box.
Any other ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks
