would this work?
first of all, i need to know if my reasons for glass being transparent are correct. glass is a crystal, therefore, when the outermost atoms are hit by lthe first photons, the energy, by way of phonons is transferred to the inner atoms as well. when the second photons come by, theyre like "this atom has already been hit by photons and it doesn't fit my vibrational pattern any more" and so they keep going.
now this theory makes sense to most crystals, but I am sure they arent all transparent, just like they don't all perfectly tune into the photons vibrational pattern (wavelenght)
i was wondering if that made any sence, and if so, could you make some sort of fabric that when hit by light, sent phonons into the substance it covered therefore rendering it invisible?
