Electrochromic devices (ECDs) that allow the modulation of light transmission are very attractive in the research field of energy saving. Here all-in-one gel switchable ECDs based on mixed-valence electroactive compounds were developed. The use of the thienoviologen/ferrocene couple as cathode and anode, respectively, leads to a significant electrochromic band in the visible range (550–800 nm), with a color change from yellow to green, and to a lower band in the NIR region (1000–1700 nm), due to the presence of one electroactive-chromic species. Replacement of the electroactive ferrocene with a fluorene-diarylamine electroactive-chromic species, allows to extend and intensify the absorption in the NIR region, thus affording modulation of the solar radiation from 500 up to 2200 nm. High optical contrast, fast coloration and bleaching times and outstanding coloration efficiencies were measured for all observed absorption bands upon the application of small potential differences (1.4 V < DV < 2 V). |
