Title: Process and apparatus for switching large-area electrochromic devices
Inventor: MATTHEWS JEREMY
IPC: G02F1/163

Granted: 2013-09-19
Abstract: Abstract A method is disclosed for controlling switching of an electrochromic device comprising at least the following components: a first and a second electrode layer, a first and a second layer in which ions can be reversibly intercalated, and a transparent ion-conducting layer. At least one of the layers in which ions may be reversibly inserted is electrochromic. The optical properties of the device are modified when a potential is applied between the electrode layers. The potential applied is limited such that the maximum generated potential difference never exceeds the safe redox limits, and that the current does not exceed some predetermined limit. Switching of electrochromic devices in this manner allows for maximum device lifetime, while simultaneously optimising switching speed and transmission homogeneity. The method is characterised in that the potential applied to the electrode layers is varied in the form of a stepped ramp, during which time the current is measured constantly. 1*T 0/o-setpoint changed 0,,se calculated *Uc =ocp appliedd 2 0 Uc, ic measured Fi.
