An apparatus having a multi-layer structure for providing a dimmable window operation is provided. The apparatus includes a first rigid substrate; a second rigid substrate coupled to the first rigid substrate at a perimeter region of the multi-layer structure, to maintain a separation between the first rigid substrate and the second rigid substrate; and a liquid crystal (LC) film positioned within the separation between the first rigid substrate and the second rigid substrate. The LC film is coupled to either the first rigid substrate or the second rigid substrate at an inner region of the multi-layer structure to define a gap between the LC film and another one of the first rigid substrate and the second rigid substrate. The gap is not occupied by a solid material or a liquid material.
