Facile Solution Synthesis of Tungsten Trioxide Doped with Nanocrystalline Molybdenum Trioxide for Electrochromic Devices.

Project description:A facile, highly efficient approach to obtain molybdenum trioxide (MoO3)-doped tungsten trioxide (WO3) is reported. An annealing process was used to transform ammonium tetrathiotungstate [(NH4)2WS4] to WO3 in the presence of oxygen. Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate [(NH4)2MoS4] was used as a dopant to improve the film for use in an electrochromic (EC) cell. (NH4)2MoS4 at different concentrations (10, 20, 30, and 40 mM) was added to the (NH4)2WS4 precursor by sonication and the samples were annealed at 500 °C in air. Raman, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements confirmed that the (NH4)2WS4 precursor decomposed to WO3 and the (NH4)2MoS4-(NH4)2WS4 precursor was transformed to MoO3-doped WO3 after annealing at 500 °C. It is shown that the MoO3-doped WO3 film is more uniform and porous than pure WO3, confirming the doping quality and the privileges of the proposed method. The optimal MoO3-doped WO3 used as an EC layer exhibited a high coloration efficiency of 128.1 cm2/C, which is larger than that of pure WO3 (74.5 cm2/C). Therefore, MoO3-doped WO3 synthesized by the reported method is a promising candidate for high-efficiency and low-cost smart windows.

Flexible electrochromic devices based on tungsten oxide and Prussian blue nanoparticles for automobile applications.

Project description:Smart windows, which control the amount of light entering buildings, houses, and automobiles, are promising in terms of energy conservation and their low environmental impact. Particularly, a next-generation smart window for automobiles will require high optical modulation, along with flexibility to adapt to various intelligent designs. We have previously fabricated electrochromic devices (ECDs) by wet coating glass substrates with nanoparticles (NPs), such as water-dispersive ink containing tungsten oxide (WO3), and Prussian blue (PB), and have evaluated and confirmed the various electrochromic (EC) properties, such as optical modulation, cyclic durability, and colouration efficiency, of the ECDs. However, glass substrates are heavy and difficult to adapt by deformation to meet the demand of next-generation automobiles. In this study, we aim to prepare complementary ECDs by wet coating WO3 and PB thin films on indium tin oxide (ITO)-coated flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates. Chromaticity and haze of ECDs were investigated in detail as evaluation indexes to verify specifications for practical use in automotive applications. Repeated switching, bending, and twisting did not degrade the ECD properties, thereby demonstrating its durability and mechanical robustness. These excellent electrochromic properties of the flexible ECDs suggest that they are promising materials for application in next-generation smart windows for automobiles.

Enhancement of electrochromic properties using nanostructured amorphous tungsten trioxide thin films.

Project description:Electrochromic technologies have recently attracted attention due to their energy-saving performance for reducing green gas emissions. The materials design and preparation of electrochromic materials with sufficient microstructure and crystallographic features for suitable ion intercalation/deintercalation are essential for high performance and efficiency. In the present work, nanostructured amorphous tungsten trioxide (WO3) films are electrodeposited to enhance electrochromic properties by controlling the pH of electrolytes. Electron microscopy and spectroelectrochemical analysis demonstrate that smaller grain sizes result in larger electrochemical reactive surface areas and shorter ion diffusion lengths. Consequently, the ions efficiently intercalated and deintercalated during the coloring and bleaching states, respectively. In particular, prepared WO3 films at electrolyte pH 1.4 demonstrate high optical modulation (74.83%) and good transmittance switching speeds (1.56 and 2.06 s during coloring and bleaching, respectively) at 650 nm, as well as comparable coloration efficiency (61.92 cm2 C-1 at 650 nm).

Triple Layer Tungsten Trioxide, Graphene, and Polyaniline Composite Films for Combined Energy Storage and Electrochromic Applications.

Project description:Different polyaniline (PANI)-based hybrid films were successfully prepared by electro-polymerizing aniline monomers onto pre-spin-coated indium tin oxide (ITO) glass slides with WO3, graphene, or WO3/graphene films. Comparing with pristine PANI, the shifts of the characteristic peaks of PANI-based nanocomposites in UV-visible absorption spectra (UV-vis) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) indicate the chemical interaction between the PANI matrix and the nanofillers, which is also confirmed by the scanning electron microscope (SEM) images. Corresponding coloration efficiencies were obtained for the WO3/PANI (40.42 cm2 C-1), graphene/PANI (78.64 cm2 C-1), and WO3/graphene/PANI (67.47 cm2 C-1) films, higher than that of the pristine PANI film (29.4 cm2 C-1), suggesting positive effects of the introduced nanofillers on the electrochromic performance. The areal capacitances of the films were observed to increase following the order as bare WO3 < WO3/graphene < pristine PANI < WO3/PANI < graphene/PANI < WO3/graphene/PANI films from both the cyclic voltammogram (CV) and galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD) results. The enhanced energy storage and electrochromic performances of the PANI-based nanocomposite films can be attributed to the capacitance contributions of the introduced nanofillers, increased PANI amount, and the rougher morphology due to the embedment of the nanofillers into the PANI matrix. This extraordinary energy storage and electrochromic performances of the WO3/graphene/PANI film make it a promising candidate for combined electrochromic and energy storage applications.

Complementary hybrid electrodes for high contrast electrochromic devices with fast response.

Project description:Fast switching 'transparent-to-black' electrochromic devices are currently under investigation as potential candidates in modern applications like e-papers or with additional functionality as ultracompact iris or switchable neutral filter in camera systems. However, recent electrochromic devices show either a lack of contrast or slow response times. To overcome these deficiencies we focus on a careful material composition of the colouring hybrid electrodes in our device. We have established a nanoporous Sb-doped SnO[Formula: see text] electrode as supporting electrode for chemisorbed electrochromic tetraphenylbenzidine molecules due to its good conductivity in the redox potential range of the molecule. This hybrid electrode was combined with a modified nanoporous TiO[Formula: see text] / viologen electrode to realize a high performance, complementary electrochromic device. Fast switching time constants of 0.5 s and concurrently high change in optical density [Formula: see text]OD = 2.04 at 605 nm confirm our successful concept. The achieved colouration efficiency of 440 cm[Formula: see text] C[Formula: see text] exceeds every high contrast device presented so far.

Transparent inorganic multicolour displays enabled by zinc-based electrochromic devices.

Project description:Electrochromic displays have been the subject of extensive research as a promising colour display technology. The current state-of-the-art inorganic multicolour electrochromic displays utilize nanocavity structures that sacrifice transparency and thus limit their diverse applications. Herein, we demonstrate a transparent inorganic multicolour display platform based on Zn-based electrochromic devices. These devices enable independent operation of top and bottom electrochromic electrodes, thus providing additional configuration flexibility of the devices through the utilization of dual electrochromic layers under the same or different colour states. Zn-sodium vanadium oxide (Zn-SVO) electrochromic displays were assembled by sandwiching Zn between two SVO electrodes, and they could be reversibly switched between multiple colours (orange, amber, yellow, brown, chartreuse and green) while preserving a high optical transparency. These Zn-SVO electrochromic displays represent the most colourful transparent inorganic-based electrochromic displays to date. In addition, the Zn-SVO electrochromic displays possess an open-circuit potential (OCP) of 1.56 V, which enables a self-colouration behaviour and compelling energy retrieval functionality. This study presents a new concept integrating high transparency and high energy efficiency for inorganic multicolour displays.

Cathodic electrodeposition of amorphous tungsten oxide dihydrate film for dual-band electrochromic modulation.

Project description:Recent advances in hydrated tungsten oxides (WO3·nH2O, n = 1, 2) have highlighted their potential for dual-band electrochromic applications. However, achieving both high optical modulation and robust cycling stability remains a challenge. This study presents a cost-effective and straightforward cathodic electrodeposition method to fabricate amorphous tungsten oxide dihydrate (WO3·2H2O) films using a precursor solution primarily composed of monomeric diperoxotungstate. The open framework and interlayer structural water in WO3·2H2O enable exceptional dual-band electrochromic performance at super-low switching potentials (-0.5 V for full coloration and 0.5 V for full bleaching) in a 1.0 M LiClO4/propylene carbonate (LiClO4/PC) electrolyte. Key features include high optical modulation (∼92% at 633 nm and ∼86% at 1100 nm), fast response times (17.5 s for bleaching and 18.1 s for coloration at 633 nm; 5.0 s for bleaching and 7.1 s for coloration at 1100 nm), high coloration efficiencies (204.2 cm2 per C at 1100 nm and 72.3 cm2 per C at 633 nm), and exceptional cycling stability (retaining 94% of initial optical modulation after 2000 cycles and 76% after 10 000 cycles at 633 nm). The interlayer water in WO3·2H2O plays a critical role in facilitating pseudocapacitive Li+ intercalation, enabling control over optical properties across the visible and near-infrared (NIR) regions while maintaining structural integrity. Additionally, the scalability of the method was demonstrated through the successful fabrication of large-area films (10 cm × 10 cm) and prototype electrochromic devices.

Characterization of Benchtop-Fabricated Arrays of Nanowrinkled Surface Electrodes as a Nitric Oxide Electrochemical Sensor.

Project description:In this work, we present an accessible benchtop fabrication technique to obtain a planar array of gold nanowrinkled surface electrodes (ANSE) for the construction of electrochemical cells, specifically to monitor soluble biomarkers of interest in cell culture environments. We present a complete characterization of the array and its response as an electrochemical cell. To validate our sensor, we evaluated the device sensitivity to detect nitric oxide (NO), an important molecule produced by endothelial cells as a response to environmental signals such as mechanics and growth factors. While testing measurements of nitric oxide in aqueous solutions with isotonic salt concentrations, we evidenced the influence of the environmental conditions for such electrochemical measurements, showing that the aqueous medium, usually not accounted for, significantly impacts the outcome. Finally, we present the application of the electrochemical sensor for the detection of nitric oxide released from stimulated endothelial cells as a proof of concept.

Transparent Wood Smart Windows: Polymer Electrochromic Devices Based on Poly(3,4-Ethylenedioxythiophene):Poly(Styrene Sulfonate) Electrodes.

Project description:Transparent wood composites, with their high strength and toughness, thermal insulation, and excellent transmissivity, offer a route to replace glass for diffusely transmitting windows. Here, conjugated-polymer-based electrochromic devices (ECDs) that switch on-demand are demonstrated using transparent wood coated with poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) as a transparent conducting electrode. These ECDs exhibit a vibrant magenta-to-clear color change that results from a remarkably colorless bleached state. Furthermore, they require low energy and power inputs of 3 mWh m-2 at 2 W m-2 to switch due to a high coloration efficiency (590 cm2 C-1 ) and low driving voltage (0.8 V). Each device component is processed with high-throughput methods, which highlights the opportunity to apply this approach to fabricate mechanically robust, energy-efficient smart windows on a large scale.

Electrodeposition of Ti-Doped Hierarchically Mesoporous Silica Microspheres/Tungsten Oxide Nanocrystallines Hybrid Films and Their Electrochromic Performance.

Project description:In this paper, a novel Ti-doped hierarchically mesoporous silica microspheres/tungsten oxide (THMS/WO3) hybrid film was prepared by simultaneous electrodeposition of Ti-doped hierarchically mesoporous silica microspheres (THMSs) and WO3 nanocrystallines onto the fluoride doped tin dioxide (FTO) coated glass substrate. It is demonstrated that the incorporation of THMSs resulted in the hybrid film with improved electrochromic property. Besides, the content of THMSs plays an important role on the electrochromic property of the hybrid film. An excellent electrochromic THMS/WO3 hybrid film with good optical modulation (52.00% at 700 nm), high coloration efficiency (88.84 cm2 C-1 at 700 nm), and superior cycling stability can be prepared by keeping the weight ratio of Na2WO4·2H2O (precursor of WO3):THMSs at 15:1. The outstanding electrochromic performances of the THMS/WO3 hybrid film were mainly attributed to the porous structure, which facilitates the charge-transfer, promotes the electrolyte infiltration and alleviates the expansion of the film during Li+ insertion. This kind of porous THMS/WO3 hybrid film is promising for a wide range of applications in smart homes, green buildings, airplanes, and automobiles.
