Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electrochromic device, in particular to an electrochromic device based on nanometer materials. Background technique [0002] Electrochromism (Electrochromism) refers to the phenomenon that the optical properties (such as transmittance, reflectivity or absorptivity) of materials in the ultraviolet, visible or near-infrared region produce stable and reversible changes under the action of an external electric field. For reversible changes in color and transparency. In 1969, S. K. Deb (Deb, S.K.Appl.Opt.Suppl.1969, 3, 192-195.) first used amorphous WO 3 Electrochromic devices were prepared with thin films, and a color-changing mechanism based on oxygen atom vacancy defects was proposed, which opened the door to electrochromic research. Since then, research on the synthesis of new electrochromic materials and the preparation of various electrochromic devices has become increasingly active. Subsequently, American scientist C....
