Optical Constants of Electrochromic Materials and Transparent Conductors (280-2500 nm)


In the following optical constants are summarized in tables. Most important representatives of different classes of electrochromic materials are listed together with the two most commonly used transparent conductors in devices. When reporting optical constants of intercalated materials the inserted amount of Li+ is given in terms of volumetric charge density.
Unlike in the case of crystalline bulk material optical constants of amorphous thin films are not universal and are largely influenced by deposition conditions. However, reported results are carefully selected out of an extensive collection of experimental data and represent best performing examples of their kind as reported in detail.
