Abstract

An investigation is conducted into fast synthesis of electrochromic organomolybdenum oxide (MoOxCy) thin films onto 40Ω/□ flexible polyethylene terephthalate/indium tin oxide substrates via atmospheric pressure plasma jet. A precursor [molybdenum carbonyl, Mo(CO)6] vapor, carried by argon gas, is injected into air plasma torch to synthesize MoOxCy films for offering extraordinary electrochromic performance. Only low driving voltages from −1V to 1V are needed to offer reversible Li+ ion intercalation and deintercalation in a 1M LiClO4-propylene carbonate electrolyte. Light modulation with transmittance variation of up to 61%, optical density change of 0.54 and coloration efficiency of 37.5cm2/C at a wavelength of 550nm after 200cycles of cyclic voltammetry switching measurements is achieved.
