Summary: Electrochromic materials are able to reversibly change their colour when placed in a different electronic state. Such materials have a broad range of commercial applications. The most desired application are smart windows - windows with electrochromic thin film coatings that allow them to darken and lighten upon the application of a very small electric voltage and are the next significant advance in window technology for energy efficiency and comfort enhancement. Semiconducting copper(I) oxide, Cu2O, films were prepared by electrodeposition method onto transparent conductive glass substrates. Those films revealed significant difference in transmittance in their coloured and bleached state, with an average relative modulation of about 53 %, so they could be a candidate for window coatings to control the inlet of sun light and heat.
