Charge-transfer kinetics and cyclic properties of inorganic all-solid-state electrochromic device with remarkably improved optical memory

Design of intrinsically stretchable and highly conductive polymers for fully stretchable electrochromic devices

“…As a result, TMPD •+ generated by electrochemical oxidation causes a more effective insertion/extraction of ions with opposite charges to balance the internally created electric fields. Thus, the balanced charge transport in the ECD containing TMPD significantly influences optical modulation and response speed 34,35 . In order to evaluate electrochemical durability of the ECD, cyclic stability was tested from − 1.2 V to 0 V at 590 nm (see Fig.…”

Optimized properties of innovative ElectroChromic Device using ITO / Ag / ITO electrodes

“…It can be seen clearly that the ECD performs good durability, stability, and reversibility. The coloration efficiency (CE) is also a very important electro chromic properties of ECD and it is associated with the optical density (DOD) and the intercalated charges (Q i ) [25,38]. It can be obtained by Eq.…”

Electrochromic WO3 thin films attain unprecedented durability by potentiostatic pretreatment

“…It is therefore not surprising that recent work has focused on increased durability of W-oxide-based and Ni-oxide-based thin films, which has been accomplished for example by adding titanium to W oxide17–22 and nitrogen,23 cobalt24 or iridium25 to Ni oxide. Other efforts to increase durability have included the use of blocking layers,26 controlled crystallization,27,28 core–shell structures29 as well as avoiding high current transients during the coloration/bleaching processes. Parallel work has demonstrated that WO 3 films that have undergone severe degradation by harsh electrochemical cycling in a Li-ion-conducting electrolyte can be rejuvenated repeatedly by galvanostatic30,31 or potentiostatic32 treatments, and similar results have been obtained for electrochromic TiO 2 ,33 MoO 3 ,34 and NiO 35.…”
