Abstract

WO3 films have the advantages of being large in visible light transmissivity adjusting range, high in coloration efficiency, short in response time, good in circulation stability, friendly to environment and the like. Electrochromic devices based on WO3 films can be widely used on buildings, automobiles and the like to serve as energy-saving smart windows. The invention relates to a WO3 photoelectric functional material and provides a method for preparing WO3 electrochromic films which are good in film quality, uniform in thickness and short in color-changing response time. According to the method, WO3 serves as a target, and electrochromic WO3 films are prepared on transparent conductive indium tin oxide (ITO) glass substrates through a radio frequency magnetron sputtering method. The method is simple in preparation process, easy to control, good in repeatability, stable in deposition rate and capable of being produced on a large scale conveniently.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to WO 3 Electrochromic thin film preparation technology, especially a kind of WO 3 Preparation method of electrochromic thin film. Background technique [0002] The electrochromic effect refers to the reversible change phenomenon that the material presents a colored state with a low light transmission rate and a faded state with a high light transmission rate under the action of an external electric field or current. In the 1960s, S.K.Ded observed the phenomenon of electrochromism and used amorphous WO for the first time 3 Thin films make electrochromic devices. Since then, people have discovered MoO 3 , V 2 o 5 、TiO 2 , NiO and other inorganic electrochromic materials and organic electrochromic materials such as polyaniline. As an important part of electrochromic materials, electrochromic films have low operating voltage, low energy consumption, no visual restrictions, easy matching with integrated circuits, memory functi...
