Abstract
Color is a property directly discernible by our eyes, making it perceptually conspicuous. Changes in color, whether achromatic (from white to black) or chromatic (from colorless to colored or between different colors), are easily detectable by people with normal vision or through simple spectrophotometric instruments. The categorization of chromogenic systems reveals various mechanisms of chromism. Applications photochromic, thermochromic, and electrochromic materials have been extensively discussed, including their behavior, mechanisms, and limitations. In the landscape of future energy storage systems, the significance of chromisms transcends conventional boundaries, promising transformative impacts on energy efficiency, management strategies, and sustainability. Chromic materials, endowed with their dynamic color-changing attributes, emerge as catalysts for innovation across diverse applications such as batteries, supercapacitors, and smart windows. This review aspires to offer a comprehensive exposition on the intrinsic chromism phenomena within energy storage systems. Commencing with a succinct overview of chromism phenomena and their nuanced formation mechanisms, the narrative seamlessly transitions to an exhaustive scrutiny of recent strides. This exploration encompasses a thorough examination of the components, intricate structures, and diverse properties characterizing chromism phenomena.
期刊介绍:
Progress in Materials Science is a journal that publishes authoritative and critical reviews of recent advances in the science of materials. The focus of the journal is on the fundamental aspects of materials science, particularly those concerning microstructure and nanostructure and their relationship to properties. Emphasis is also placed on the thermodynamics, kinetics, mechanisms, and modeling of processes within materials, as well as the understanding of material properties in engineering and other applications.
The journal welcomes reviews from authors who are active leaders in the field of materials science and have a strong scientific track record. Materials of interest include metallic, ceramic, polymeric, biological, medical, and composite materials in all forms.
Manuscripts submitted to Progress in Materials Science are generally longer than those found in other research journals. While the focus is on invited reviews, interested authors may submit a proposal for consideration. Non-invited manuscripts are required to be preceded by the submission of a proposal. Authors publishing in Progress in Materials Science have the option to publish their research via subscription or open access. Open access publication requires the author or research funder to meet a publication fee (APC).
Abstracting and indexing services for Progress in Materials Science include Current Contents, Science Citation Index Expanded, Materials Science Citation Index, Chemical Abstracts, Engineering Index, INSPEC, and Scopus.
