Modulated transmittance and reflectance in crystalline electrochromic WO3 films: Theoretical limits
TLDR
In this paper, a quantitative theory for the optical properties of crystalline electrochromic materials is introduced, based on the double injection model and including ionized impurity scattering of free electrons.Abstract:
A quantitative theory for the optical properties of crystalline electrochromic materials is introduced. It is based on the double injection model and includes ionized impurity scattering of free electrons. Solar and luminous properties are evaluated versus electron density for doped WO3 films. Our results point to the possibility of creating efficient ‘‘smart windows’’ with dynamic control of the inflow of radiant energy.read more

Dependence of WO 3 Electrochromic Absorption on Crystallinity
TL;DR: In this paper, the optical absorption of amorphous electrochromic display layers is explained as small polaron absorption and the necessary W5+5d −electron localization is favored by the lattice disorder.
