ALKALI METAL ION-DOPED ELECTROCHROMIC FILMS AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME

摘要

Alkali metal ion-doped electrochromic films, and methods of making such films, are disclosed. An exemplary electrochromic film comprises a lattice of an oxide of a Group VIII transition metal and a dopant deposited onto the surface of a substrate. The oxide is generated by heating at least one starting material and at least one dopant ion source on the surface of the substrate.
