Title:
ELECTROCHROMIC DEVICES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/126460
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Conductive transparent electrodes (28A, 28B) may be formed from multilayer structures (40A-40F). The multilayer structures may include layers on a substrate. Each layer may include a seed layer (46, 56), a metal layer (48, 54) on the seed layer, and a protective layer (50, 52) on the metal layer. The protective layer may be an oxide. The conductive transparent electrodes may pass visible light and block infrared light. An electrochromatic device may be formed from an electrolyte (32) sandwiched between first and second layers of electrochromic material (30, 34). The electrodes may be formed adjacent to the first and second layer of electrochromic material. A thin-film heater may be used to heat the electrochromic device to speed ion diffusion and chemical reaction rates, thereby enhancing electrochromatic device switching speeds. The thin-film heater may be controlled based on feedback from a light transmission sensor that is monitoring the transmission level of the electrochromic device.
