In this study, WO3–Nb2O5 electrochromic films and an ITO/WO3–Nb2O5/Nb2O5/NiVOx/ITO all-solid-state electrochromic device were deposited using fast-alternating bipolar-pulsed magnetron sputtering using tungsten and niobium targets. The influence of different sputtering powers from the niobium target on the refractive index, extinction coefficient, optical modulation, coloration efficiency, reversibility, and durability of the WO3–Nb2O5 films is discussed. The aim of this work is to find the suitable Nb proportion to increase durability and less negative effect in the electrochromic performance of Nb2O5-doped WO3 films. The lifetime of the WO3–Nb2O5 films is 4 times longer than pure WO3 films when the sputtering power of the Nb target is higher than 250 W. The results show that WO3–Nb2O5 composite films used for an all-solid-state electrochromic device can sustain over 3 × 104 repeated coloring and bleaching cycles while the transmission modulations can be kept above 20%. The coloring and bleaching response times are 7.0 and 0.7 s, respectively.

Abstract All-solid-state electrochromic devices (ECDs) for smart-window applications currently suffer from limited ion diffusion speed, which lead to slow coloration and bleaching processes. Here, we design an all-solid-state tandem structure with protons as diffusing species achieving an ultrafast switching ECD. We use WO3 as the electrochromic material, while poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) as the solid-state proton source to enable fast switching. This structure by itself exhibits low optical modulation (i.e., difference of on/off transmittance). We further introduce a solid polymeric electrolyte layer on top of PEDOT:PSS to form a tandem structure, which provides Na+ ions to PEDOT:PSS and pump protons there to the WO3 layer through ion exchange. Our new all-solid-state ECD features high optical modulation (>92% at 650 nm), fast response (coloration to 90% in 0.7 s and bleaching to 65% in 0.9 s and 90% in 7.1 s) and excellent stability (<10% degradation after 3000 cycles). Large-area (30×40 cm2) as well as flexible devices are fabricated to demonstrate the great potential for scaling up.
