The invention discloses a method for constructing a complementary electrochromic device based on a
nickel-
cobalt double-
metal hydroxide film. A
nickel-
cobalt double-
metal hydroxide (NiCo-LDH) thin film is used as a
working electrode, a
tungsten oxide (WO3) thin film is used as a counter
electrode, a sealed cavity is formed between the two electrodes, a bistrifluoromethanesulfonimide
lithium (C2F6LiNO4S2) solution is used as an
electrolyte and injected into the sealed cavity, and the
lithium ion battery is obtained. The invention further provides the complementary electrochromic device constructed by adopting the method. The
fading state of the device is colorless, and the coloring state is dark blue. The complementary type electrochromic device has large
light modulation amplitude, faster
time response and higher coloring efficiency in a visible region and a near-
infrared region, and compared with traditional NiO, the
nickel-
cobalt double-
metal hydroxide film has higher theoretical specific capacity and faster
ion migration rate and is used as an
anode ion storage layer of the complementary type electrochromic device, so that the complementary type electrochromic device can be applied to the field of
electrochromic devices. And the charge storage capability of the device can be obviously improved.
