    Abstract: The disclosure relates generally to a method of changing an optical state of an electrochromic film. The electrochromic film may have a plurality of optical states. The method may include selecting a desired state of the plurality of optical states; injecting electric charges into the electrochromic film; monitoring an amount of the electric charges injected into the electrochromic film; and stopping injecting the electric charges when the electric charges reaches a pre-set amount corresponding to the desired state.

    Abstract: Electrochromic devices with reflective structure and related manufacturing methods are provided. One of the electrochromic devices includes a bottom electrode layer, an electrochromic layer on the bottom electrode layer, an electrolyte layer on the electrochromic layer, a charge storage layer on the electrolyte layer, and a top electrode on the charge storage layer. The transmittance of the electrochromic device changes in response to a voltage applied between the bottom electrode layer and the top electrode layer. One of the bottom and the top electrode layers is a reflective conductive layer, while the other being a transparent conductive layer. This electrochromic device has a simplified structure due to the removal of a separated reflective film, which also results in simplified manufacturing process.

    Abstract: Black-to-transmissive electrochromic polymers have superior properties such as absorbance of across the entire visible spectrum and an obvious color change from black to transmissive with an applied voltage. Methods for synthesizing or using the same include contacting monomers under polymerization conditions. Black-to-transmissive electrochromic polymer thin films include the black-to-transmissive electrochromic polymers, and electrochromic devices include the black-to-transmissive electrochromic polymers or thin films.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to multi-layer display devices including electrochromic material and methods of making the same. The display device may include one or more of a first layer comprising a first substrate depicting a display pattern; a second layer comprising an electrochromic polymer; a third layer comprising a solid state electrolyte; a fourth layer comprising a charge storage layer; a fifth layer comprising a second substrate, and/or other components. The one or more of the second layer, the third layer, and/or the fourth layer may be interposed between the first layer and the fifth layer. An application of a voltage between the first substrate and the second substrate may case a change in transmission and/or reflectance of light through the display device such that the display pattern on the first substrate may be displayed.
