Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electrochromic devices, and in particular relates to a fibrous flexible electrochromic device and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] The optical properties (color, transparency, reflectivity, etc.) of electrochromic materials can be reversibly changed under an applied electric field. Due to the characteristics of low operating voltage, no need for backlight, low energy consumption, low cost, and the ability to produce large-area and special-shaped structural devices, electrochromic devices are widely used in display devices, smart windows, military camouflage, and anti-glare automotive rearview mirrors. It has broad application prospects. [0003] Existing electrochromic devices mainly have a sandwich structure, and the sandwich structure is composed of two layers of transparent electrodes, an electrochromic layer and an electrolyte layer sandwiched between the two layers of tran...
