Electrochromism of Metallo-Supramolecular Polymer

摘要

Metallo-supramolecular polymers are composed of metal ions and organic ligands. The polymers are expected to show unique electronic and/or optical properties based on the interaction between the metal ion and the ligand. We have revealed electrochromism,1 non-volatile memory,2 vapoluminescence,3 proton conductivity,4 anticancer phenomena,5 and the other properties6 of the polymers. Among the wide properties, the electrochromism have received special attention to smart window applications. In this presentation I introduce recent progress on electrochromic display devices using metallo-supramolecular polymer.
