Abstract

Preliminary development towards passive matrix Electrochromic (EC) device in conjugated EC polymer system is discussed. High contrast ratio of dark and bleached pixels is obtained by modification of counter and working electrode capacitance ratio and spacer geometry. Mask patterning and laminar electropolymerization for multicolor EC system application is discussed.
