Abstract

A highly porous cobalt oxide thin film was prepared on ITO glass by a facile chemical bath deposition (CBD) method. The as-prepared cobalt oxide film has an intercrossing net-like morphology. The electrochromic performance of cobalt oxide film was investigated in 0.1 M KOH by means of transmittance, cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry (CA) measurements. The cobalt oxide thin film exhibits a noticeable electrochromism with reversible color changes from pale yellow to dark grey and presents a transmittance variation with 36% in the visible range. The porous cobalt oxide thin film also shows good reaction kinetics with fast switching speed, and the coloration and bleaching time are 2.5 and 2 s, respectively.
