title: Electroswitching of emission and coloration with quick response and high reversibility in an electrochemical cell.
abstract: No fade to grey: Electroswitching of emission and coloration was achieved for a combination of a luminescent Eu(III) complex and an electrochromic molecule of diheptyl viologen (HV(2+)), indicating that such a combination could be used as a display material with dual emissive and reflective modes. The Prussian blue (PB)-modified electrode improved the response time and reversibility for the switching of emission and coloration, by acting as a counter electrode for the electrochromism of HV(2+).
