Tungsten oxide solid state chemistry

The largest series of electronically conducting materials are the phosphate tungsten bronzes. These have similar properties to oxides bronzes such as Na WOs (see Oxides Solid-state Chemistry) and are strongly colored metals or semiconductors. They are formed by inserting planes of...

Electrochromic devices have also utilized LbL assembled films for immobilizing the active electrochromic material that changes color at an applied voltage. Polyviologen (PV) was the first active material that was used for such purposes within PV-PSS multilayers, while the first LbL-based solid-state electrochromic device utilized poly(3,4-ethylene-dioxythiophene) (PEDOT) colloid as the electrochromic material within multilayers of PEDOT/PSS and polyaniline. Other nanoparticles were used for the development of electrochromic devices with LbL films, such as Pmssian blue, polyoxometalate, and tungsten oxide. A recent example demonstrated the use of coordination chemistry-based LbL assembly to fabricate fast-switching electrochromic films of zinc polyiminofiuorene and terpyridine. ...
