説明:
(abstract)In this study, we developed binder-enhanced reversible photochromic tungsten oxide (WO3) films for advanced applications. Expanding on previous research, we used tungsten oxide hybrid composites as the base material and incorporated various binders, specifically polyethylene glycol (PEG), polysorbate 80 (PS 80), and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), to evaluate their effects on reversible photochromic reactions. Our experiments demonstrated that the inclusion of CMC significantly improved the photochromic properties and exhibited the fastest reversible reactions when compared to PEG and polysorbate 80. This enhancement is attributed to the high density of hydroxyl groups and the network structure of CMC, which facilitate efficient proton transfer and oxygen permeability, both crucial for the reoxidation process in WO3. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations supported these findings by indicating that CMC has a suitable bandgap and electron mobility, which enhance charge injection and transport. Additionally, the fabricated films showed consistent and stable performance under both heat treatment and natural ambient conditions. These results underscore the potential of CMC as an effective binder for developing high-performance, reversible photochromic films suitable for applications in smart windows, displays, and optoelectronic devices.
