Biomimetic Conducting Polymers: Synthesis, Materials, Properties, Functions, and Devices

“…The basic electrodes are mirror polished metals, a glass coated with a sputtered metal film, a glass or a transparent plastic coated with a transparent film of a conducting material-the most usual is indium tin oxide-(ITO electrode), or any of the previous electrodes coated with a uniform film of an electrochromic CP: metal/CP, glass/metal/CP, or glass/ITO/CP ahead CP.electrode. 136 The construction of the devices requires a thin transparent membrane film (solid electrolyte), allowing the flow of ions between the two constituent electrodes and avoiding its electronic contact, which should short-circuit and destroy the device.…”

Prussian blue for electrochromic devices

“…develop new electrochromic devices that will be less expensive and can be applied with success in several light transmitting and/or reflecting products [12]. 6 , where M is an alkaline metal.…”

“…The same purpose for small aircraft windows dimming was also envisaged [8]. Although, some few practical applications in architecture can be found over the world [39], the challenge to find better solutions continue [12,40]. Finally, it was already shown that ECDs have potential to save lighting energy when compared to ordinary clear glass [41], thus they are interesting systems to be studied.…”

Multicolored Polyanilines Doped by Different Acid Dyes and Their Electrochromic Property

“…As a kind of electrochromic material (ECM), conducting polymer has become one of the most important fields in functional material science due to its highly controlled conjugated molecular structure, flexible mechanical property, rapid response, excellent coloration efficiency and long life and many other specialties, which can be used widely in large-area display [1,2], storage devices [3], military camouflage [4], smart windows [5], anti-glare mirrors for cars [6] and so on. Among those conducting polymers, polyaniline (PANI) have attracted more and more attentions because of their adjustable conductivity from insulating to conducting range by a reversible doping and de-doping process [7].…”
