Wide-spectrum modulated electrochromic smart windows based on MnO₂/PB films by Ma, Dongyun, Eh, Alice Lee-Sie, Cao, Sheng, Lee, Pooi See, Wang, Jinmin

“…However, the single inorganic electrochromic (EC) material commonly exhibits a single color change, leading to a narrow spectrum of modulation, which offsets or limits the maximally energy-saving ability. Here, we present a wide-spectrum modulated EC device designed by combining the complementary EC nanocomposite of manganese dioxide (MnO2) and Prussian blue (PB) for enhanced energy savings. …”
