In this study, the design, fabrication and characterization of a flexible electrochromic device based on indium tin oxide (ITO) coated polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic is discussed. The working electrochromic material film was poly (3,4-(2,2-dimethylpropylenedioxy)thiophene) (PProDOT-Me-2), while the counter layer of the device was vanadium oxide titanium oxide (V2O5/TiO2) composite film, which serves as an ion storage layer. A solution type electrolyte was used as the ionic transport layer and was sandwiched between the working and counter layers. The device exhibited tuneable light transmittance between transparent and deep blue color, with a maximum contrast ratio at 580 nm wavelength. Other important properties, such as switching speed, life time, and coloration efficiency have been improved. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
