Abstract: An electrochemical device and method of forming said electrochemical device is disclosed. The method can include providing a substrate and a stack overlying the substrate. The stack can include a first transparent conductive layer over the substrate, a cathodic electrochemical layer over the first transparent conductive layer, an anodic electrochemical layer over the electrochromic layer, and a second transparent conductive layer overlying the anodic electrochemical layer. The method can further include determining a first pattern for the first transparent conductive layer. The first pattern can include a first region and a second region. The first region and the second region can include the same material. The method can also include patterning the first region of the first transparent conductive layer without removing the material from the first region. After patterning, the first region can have a first resistivity and the second region can have a second resistivity.

Abstract: A non-light-emitting variable transmission device can include an active stack; a transparent conductive layer overlying the active stack; an antireflective layer overlying the transparent conductive layer and defining a hole; and a bus bar comprising a conductive tape that extends into the hole and contacts the transparent conductive layer. Proper selection of materials and design of a bus bar can allow an electrical connection to be made to the transparent conductive layer without the need to cut an underlying transparent conductive layer. A method of forming the non-light-emitting variable transmission device can include patterning the antireflective layer to define the hole that extends to the transparent conductive layer. Improved control in patterning allows the antireflective layer to be relatively thin and not remove too much of the underlying transparent conductive layer.

Abstract: An electroactive device comprising a stack comprising a first electrode and a second electrode; and an electroactive layer disposed between the first and second electrodes, wherein the stack comprises a mitigated area essentially free of material corresponding with the first electrode, and wherein at least a portion of the second electrode and electroactive layer, as contained in the mitigated area, are functional.
