Abstract

The invention provides a photochromic device which changes color along with variation of solar ray intensity. An external electric field which controls color change is provided through an organic solar battery which is integrated in the same device. The photochromic device comprises a transparent non-conductive substrate, a transparent conducting layer, an organic solar battery material layer, an electrochromic material layer and an electrolyte layer, wherein the organic solar battery material layer at least comprises a positive layer, a negative layer and an organic photovoltaic conversion material layer. According to the photochromic device, electric power generated through photoelectric effects of the organic solar battery can provide electric power for the electrochromic layer and change of device color is automatically controlled through a light activated switch according to intensity of solar light. The photochromic device has the advantages of operating without additional power supply, being more energy saving and greatly reducing manufacturing costs due to the fact that external circuits are greatly simplified.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electrochromic device, in particular to a photochromic device driven by organic solar cells. Background technique [0002] Electrochromic materials refer to materials that change color due to reversible oxidation or reduction reactions that change the intensity of reflection or transmission of incident light as the polarity and strength of an applied electric field change. Electrochromic materials can be divided into two categories: organic materials and inorganic materials. Inorganic electrochromic materials have received widespread attention due to their stable performance and strong UV resistance, mainly transition metal oxides, such as tungsten oxide, nickel oxide, manganese oxide, etc. If this material is coated on the glass surface, it can be used for the exterior wall of the building. In this way, people can actively control the reflection or transmission intensity of the glass to the light as the seasons and time ch...
