Description
Summary:The nanostructure of cathodically deposited films of amorphous tungsten oxide has been modified by introducing molecules of organic indicators into them, which made it possible to obtain films with novel electrochromic properties. It has been shown that the introduction of molecules of acid-base indicators changes the nanostructure of the oxide itself, where as the introduction of molecules of redox indicators gives rise to absorption bands in the optical spectrum of films, which are characteristic of the redox reactions of these molecules and whose intensity depends on the value of the present potential.
