Abstract

Plate-like hydrated tungsten trioxide (3WO3·H2O) films were grown on a fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) coated transparent conductive substrate via an efficient, facile and template-free hydrothermal method. The film exhibited a fast coloration/bleaching response (tc90% = 4.3 s and tb90% = 1.4 s) and a high coloration efficiency (112.7 cm2C−1), which were probably due to a large surface area.
