Given the importance of the development of electrochromic devices (ECDs) for technological applications small devices with Prussian blue (PB)/hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) electrolyte/CeO2TiO2 configuration were assembled and characterized. The films of PB were obtained galvanostaticaly by applying 0.45 mA for 300 s. The cyclic voltammetry, in 1 mol L 1 KCl solution, of these films showed a red...

Nanostructured electrochromic materials having long life cycle and high chemical stability are promising for displays, rear view mirrors, smart window applications.

The complementary electrochromic device, where the optical transmittance changes upon flow of cations back and forth between anodic cathodic electrodes, operates in a rocking-chair fashion if it can inherently self-discharge. Herein, first demonstration dual-mode platform having self-coloring self-bleaching characteristics is reported, which realized by sandwiching zinc metal within newly-desig...

In this research, WO3 and Au-WO3 thin films were prepared at different temperatures using the sol gel method. The effect of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) on the electrochromic properties of WO3 was also studied. 2.5 nm GNP was synthesized through sodium citrate reduction of gold chloride in an aqueous solution. These films were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, and spectrophotometer analyses. The fil...

Bicyclic aziridines show exclusive photochromic behavior. Here, we summarize the results of optical and electrochemical properties, such as photochemical, solvatochromic, electrochromic andkinetic behavior of bicyclic aziridines linked to chalcone moieties. The photochromic process for conversion of closed photoisomers to open photoisomers for compounds 1-10 followed zero-order kinetics. For co...
