Morphology

unipolarity = unipolar (semi-transparent) = uni + polar + ity

The noun is formed by adding -ity to 'unipolar'; 'uni-' + 'polar' directly indicates a single polarity in electrical contexts.

Etymology

Unipolarity comes from uni- 'one' and polar 'pole', the same root as the word 'pole' in North Pole. That is why in electronics unipolarity means a device or circuit using only one polarity or one type of charge or voltage.
