A bistable electrochromic device based on poly(viologen)s

Vis‐NIR Modulation in a Dynamically Reversible Single C‐pBPV Biopolymer Electrolyte for Sustainable Systems in Electrochromism

“…Other contributing factors may also be involved in this phenomenon. [50,51] Hence, the thorough examination of the novel material-based G1 device revealed attributes resembling those of a bistable electrochromic material. It is widely recognized that energy losses through windows contribute to ≈50% of the total energy consumption in buildings, a concern that has notably escalated in recent years.…”

Zinc tungstate encapsulated into a scarce Zn(ii)–viologen framework with photochromic, electrochromic and chemochromic properties

“…The first reduction potential at −0.57 V was related to the viologen free radicals; the second reduction potential observed at −0.81 V derived from the reduction of the ZnW 12 anion; and the third reduction potential at −1.09 V was associated with the neutral viologen obtained by two-electron reduction. 56,57 Moreover, we further explored the feasibility of using compound 1 in an electrochromic device (EDC). Powder 1 as an active ingredient was encapsulated between two pieces of ITO glass with an effective area of 1 cm 2 , and the surrounding area was sealed by insulating tape (Fig.…”

Soluble polymer facilely self-grown in situ on conducting substrates at room temperature towards electrochromic applications

“…18,19 Meanwhile, electroactive and soluble monomers that are irregularly polymerized on the electrode surface lead to unpredictable performance of the polymer, limiting its further investigation. [20][21][22] Thus, developing feasible methods to prepare polymer EC films under mild conditions is urgent and necessary.…”
