From the Bottom Up – Flexible Solid State Electrochromic Devices

Solid-state flexible polymer-based electrochromic devices are fabricated continuously by stacking layers in one direction. This novel bottom-up approach with no need for a lamination step is realized through in situ photo-crosslinking of the electrolyte using a “curing-chamber” fitted to a roll-coater, which lowers the oxygen concentration at the electrolyte surface. This enables fully printed and 2D patterned organic electrochromics. As a service to our authors and readers, this journal provides supporting information supplied by the authors.
