  • PHOTOVOLTAIC ELECTROCHROMIC DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
    Publication number: 20100294330
    Abstract: A photovoltaic electrochromic device and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. According to the method, a plurality of thin-film solar cells are formed on a transparent substrate, wherein each of the thin-film solar cells at least includes an anode, a photoelectric conversion layer, and a cathode, and a portion of a surface of the anode is exposed from each of the thin film solar cells. An electrochromic thin film is then deposited on at least one surface of the cathode and the exposed surface of the anode. Thereafter, an electrolyte layer is formed on surfaces of the thin-film solar cells to cover the electrochromic thin films. The anodes and the cathodes of the thin-film solar cells also serve as the anodes and the cathodes of the photovoltaic electrochromic device.
