A new Co(II)-metalloviologen-based electrochromic material integrated in thin multilayer films.
A metallosupramolecular coordination polyelectrolyte prepared by the reaction of cobalt(II) with a novel bisterpyridine ligand has been assembled as the active component in electrochromic films by sequential deposition using electrostatic layer-by-layer self-assembly.
