Electrochromic properties of phthalate derivatives for full color paper-like display

Abstract

We studied electrochemical properties of electrochromic materials, which showed reversible color change by electronic stimuli, from a view point of paper-like electronic imaging device. Electrochemical materials showing color changes from clear to the three primary colors such as RGB or CMY should be required to realize full color paper-like electronic imaging decvice. In this paper, we studied electrochromic characteristics of phthalate derivatives from the view point of its color and the electrochromic mechanism for paper-like display.
