Abstract
Photoelectrochromic materials and devices have a wide range of applications such as architectural windows, displays and energy conversion. The primary focus of this chapter involves areas that are relevant to the R&D of the devices for renewable energy conversion and conservation. A photoelectrochromic device (PECD) can be designed to include an extra electrochromic (EC) layer in a light-driven self-powered battery, such as dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), silicon solar cells or any other possible devices. Most of them are combined with DSSCs in the PECD field, which is mainly focused on in this chapter. ? 2015 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
