👉 The term "thermochromic" refers to a phenomenon where light is refracted or birefringent, which can result in changes in temperature. Thermochromics are typically used for color change detection and control in thermal systems and devices. Examples include thermochromic transistors, which use the property of thermochromism to convert light into electrical signals. In electronics, the term "thermochromic" is often applied to a device that uses therm
