Effects of Secondary Dopant Anions on Emissivity and Related Properties of Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene).

Smart materials that are energy efficient and take up less space are crucial in the development of new technologies. Electrochromic polymers (ECPs) are one such class of materials that actively change their optical behavior in both visible and infrared parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. They show promise in a wide range of applications, from active camouflage to smart displays/windows.
