  1. 1. Components of smart windows : Investigations of electrochromic films, transparent counter electrodes and sputtering techniques

    Författare :Lisen Kullman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Solid State Physics; fasta tillståndets fysik;

    Sammanfattning : In smart windows, the transmittance of visible and near infrared radiation can be reversibly and persistently modulatcd by an applied voltage pulse (~2 V). The micrometer-thick multi-layer structure contains two electrodes capable of charge insertion. One of these electrodes must be electrochromic; usually it consists of tungsten oxide. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Vanadium dioxide is a well-known thermochromic material, whose optical properties can be varied reversibly in response to fluctuation of temperature. It is attractive in various fields due to its unique properties as well as its prospective applications. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Optical Characterization and Energy Simulation of Glazing for High-Performance Windows

    Författare :Andreas Jonsson; Arne Roos; Werner Platzer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy simulations; antireflection coatings; dip-coating; optical measurements; spectrophotometer; integrating spheres; low-e windows; solar control windows; smart windows; control strategies; U value; g-value; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik; Engineering Science; teknisk fysik med inriktning mot fasta tillståndets fysik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on one important component of the energy system - the window. Windows are installed in buildings mainly to create visual contact with the surroundings and to let in daylight, and should also be heat and sound insulating. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Predicting Electrochromic Smart Window Performance

    Författare :Johnny Degerman Engfeldt; Göran Lindbergh; Carina Lagergren; Kerstin Forsberg; James Gardner; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrochromic; Electrooptics; Smart windows; Prediction model; Large Area Device model;

    Sammanfattning : The building sector is one of the largest consumers of energy, where the cooling of buildings accounts for a large portion of the total energy consumption. Electrochromic (EC) smart windows have a great potential for increasing indoor comfort and saving large amounts of energy for buildings. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Electrochromism in Metal Oxide Thin Films : Towards long-term durability and materials rejuvenation

    Författare :Rui-Tao Wen; Claes-Göran Granqvist; Agustín R. González-Elipe; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electrochromic; smart windows; long-term durability; degradation kinetics; ion trapping; de-trapping; materials rejuvenation; Engineering Science with specialization in Solid State Physics; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot fasta tillståndets fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Electrochromic thin films can effectively regulate the visible and infrared light passing through a window, demonstrating great potential to save energy and offer a comfortable indoor environment in buildings. However, long-term durability is a big issue and the physics behind this is far from clear. LÄS MER
