Outline of Final Research Achievements

Electrochromic (EC) device is expected to be a potential candidate for novel reflective display and energy conservation system. We focused on Ag-electrodeposition based EC device. It is known that Ag nanoparticles exhibit various optical states based on their localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR). In order to realize color variation in Ag electrodeposition, we investigated the electrochemical formation of size-controlled Ag nanoparticles using a voltage-step method which consisted of the application of two successive different voltages (V1 and V2). Thus electrodeposited Ag nanoparticles exhibit red and blue color depending on the time for V2 voltage application. The color changes between transparent and colored states are reversible. Then, we firstly and successfully demonstrate the LSPR-based multicolor EC device exhibiting reversible color change in five optical states (transparent, silver mirror, red, blue, and black).
