Dynamic Windows Using Reversible Zinc Electrodeposition in Neutral Electrolytes with High Opacity and Excellent Resting Stability

Dynamic windows, which electronically switch between clear and dark states, can play a vital role in energy‐efficient buildings by reducing lighting, heating, and cooling demands.

Zusammenfassung:Dynamic windows, which electronically switch between clear and dark states, can play a vital role in energy‐efficient buildings by reducing lighting, heating, and cooling demands. In this manuscript, reversible Zn electrodeposition on tin‐doped indium oxide electrodes is studied and a mechanism is proposed that explains the deposition and dissolution processes. This mechanistic understanding enables the construction of 100 cm2 two‐electrode devices that transition from clear (80% transmission at 600 nm) to highly opaque (
