Electrochromic Performances of rGO-WO3 Thin Film and Its Application as an Integrated Device Powered with Quantum Dot-Sensitized Solar Cells
Reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-embedded WO3 composite thin film (rGO-WO3) is synthesized and investigated for its electrochromic performances. Furthermore, a novel application of quantum dot-sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs), to operate the rGO-WO3 electrochromic devices (ECDs), is demonstrated with development of an integrated device. The co-existence of both WO3 nanostructure and rGO sheet ameliorates the EC performances of composite thin film, compared to WO3 thin film. The rGO-WO3, possessing 0.1 g of rGO, nanocomposite shows an optimum optical contrast (%ΔT) of 66.3% and excellent optical stability displaying 1.7% degradation in %ΔT, while the WO3 film only exhibits a %ΔT of 52.2% and, 4.2% of optical degradation. Incorporation of rGO sheet into the WO3 nanostructure introduces de-agglomerated morphology, enhances electrochemically active surface area, and which facilitates the ion-transfer kinetics. The series-connected QDSSCs results an optimum open circuit voltage (Voc) of 1.03 V upon 1 sun illumination, which is found to be adequate for the study of switching performances of ECDs. QDSSCs assisted rGO-WO3 EC film exhibits a significant %ΔT of 43% and coloration time of 7 s. Additionally, QDSSCs device is illuminated with various light intensities to study the intensity and Voc dependent EC performances of rGO-WO3.
