Abstract
The electrochromic properties of thermally decomposed films of an organic tungsten compound are investigated. The films are prepared by spin-coating a toluene solution of hexaphenoxy-tungsten onto transparent conductive substrates and thermally decomposing the coated films in air. Films decomposed at relatively low temperatures (about 200°C) show good electrochromic properties, comparable to ordinary vacuum evaporation films. The write-erase property of the film becomes poorer as the decomposition temperature is increased. This degradation is due mainly to crystallization of the tungsten oxide.Keywords
