Enhanced Switching Speed of Electrochromic Energy Storage Devices: Application in Smart Windows

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

The cost of energy storage devices (ESDs) is reduced via the exploitation of the electrochromic (EC) properties. Due to its low-cost and outstanding cycling capability, nickel oxide (NiO) is considered an excellent candidate for the electrode material of electrochromic and energy storage devices (EC-ESDs). Nevertheless, NiO offers a slow switching speed, which limits the application of the EC-ESDs. To overcome this limitation, the surface of the fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) is modified. The achieved values of switching speeds for the coloration and bleach are found to be 0.86 and 0.29 s. Moreover, the obtained optical modulation (OM) is -77% @ 550 nm along with a coloration efficiency of -42 cm2/C. It offered an areal capacitance of -130 mF/cm2 @ 5 mV/s.
