“…Prussian Blue materials are relevant for several applications such as electrochromic systems [3], electrochemical sensors [4,5], and energy storage devices [6,7,8,9]. Prussian Blue and analogs are also potential materials for aqueous electrolyte and sodium ion batteries [6,10,11,12,13,14,15].…”

The compound Prussian Blue (PB), and its reduced form Prussian White (PW) are nowadays considered, in applied and fundamental research groups, as potential materials for sustainable energy storage devices. In this work, these compounds were prepared by potentiostatic electrochemical synthesis, by using different deposition voltages and thicknesses. Thick, compact and uniform layers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Raman spectroscopy. Results have shown a well-defined transition voltage for growing Prussian Blue phases and a strong dependence of the morphology/growing orientation of the samples as a function of applied potential and thickness. For the negative potential tested of −0.10 V vs. SCE, a mixture of cubic and rhombohedral phases was observed.

54 also to create a private atmosphere in business centers and meeting rooms [2]. However, the main advantage of "smart windows" is power saving due to lower interior heating. As a result, less power is required for air conditioning. These windows would also lower power consumption in "peak" periods and for lighting [3]. Thus, the use of "smart windows' should be profitable and widespread, but the reality is different. The high cost of 100 [4] and even up to 400 US $ per square meter [5] negates all advantages of their use. Therefore, the search for technologies that would lower their cost becomes key for the scientific field.

“…Since photochromic PCs for smart windows have not yet formed a system, we have not discussed them. Most reviews categorize smart windows based on the principle of discoloration, preparation methods or materials [72][73][74][75][76]. This review is based on the specific structures of PCs because structure determines the properties of a material.…”

Smart windows control indoor solar radiation by regulating the transmittance of light, which is a promising way to reduce building energy consumption. The advent of photonic crystals (PCs) has accelerated the industrialization of smart windows. The combination of static and dynamic regulation can be realized based on the photon control function of photonic band gaps, which is expected to achieve the ideal effect of light transmission and heat control. This paper reviews recent advances of electrochromic and thermochromic smart windows based on PCs. Firstly, theory, materials, performance and development of electrochromic and thermochromic smart windows based on PCs are briefly outlined. Typical structures of electrochromic and thermochromic PCs are introduced in detail, from preparation process, morphology characterization and performance analysis, which provides directions for the future development and construction of smart windows based on PCs. Finally, challenges and opportunities facing next-generation smart windows are summarized.
