Abstract
Solid-state electrochromic devices(ECDs)are of considerable technological and commercial interest because of their controllable transmission, absorption, and/or reflectance. For instance, a major application of these devices is in smart windows that can regulate the solar gains of buildings and also in glare attenuation in automobile rear view mirrors. A typical electrochromic device has a five-layer structure: GS/TC/EC/IC/IS/TC/GS, where GS is a glass substrate, TC is a transparent conductor, usually ITO(indium tin oxide)or FTO(fluorine tin oxide), EC is an electrochromic coating(typically WO3, Nb2O5, Nb2O5:Li+or Nb2O5–TiO2), IC is an ion conductor(solid or liquid electrolyte), in our case polymeric films based on natural polymers like starch or cellulose, and IS is an ion storage coating(typically CeO2–TiO2, CeO2–ZrO2, or CeO2–TiO2–ZrO2).This paper describes properties of two electrochromic devices with a WO3/natural-polymer-based electrolyte/CeO2–TiO2configuration.
