摘要

Electrochromic assemblies having a layer structure, characterized in that on e layer is an electrically conductive, electrochromic polydioxythiophene and a further lay er is an ion-storage compound or a mixture of ion-storage compounds of the formulae ( I) to (XIV). Me1O (I) Me1(OH)2 (IX) Me1O x (II) Me1O(OH) (X) M x Me1O (III) MMe1O2 (XI) M x Me1O2 (IV) Me1O2 (XII) M x Me1O y (V) Me1 2O3 (XIII) Me2O3 (VI) Me1 2O3.cndot.H2O (XIV) M x Me2O3 (VII) M x Me2(1-x)Me2x O3 (VIII) where Me1 and Me2 each represent a metal transition group VI or VIII of the Mendeleev Periodic Table, M represents a metal of main group I of the Periodic Table or a proton, x represents a number from 0.001 to 5, y represents a number from 0.001 to 5.
