摘要
Electrochromic materials allow for optical modulation and have attracted much attention due to their bright future in applications such as smart windows and energy-saving displays. Two-dimensional (2D) molybdenum oxide nanoflakes with combined advantages of high active specific surface area and natural layered structure should be highly potential candidates for electrochromic devices. However, the efficient top-down preparation of 2D MoO3 nanoflakes is still a huge challenge and the sluggish ionic kinetics hinder its electrochromic performance. Herein, we demonstrated a feasible thiourea-assisted exfoliation procedure, which can not only increase the yield but also reduce the thickness of 2D MoO3-x nanoflakes down to a few nanometers. Furthermore, electrophoretic-deposited MoO3-x nanoflakes were combined with poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS)-conjugated polymer to simultaneously enhance the ionic kinetics and electronic conductivity, with a diffusion coefficient of 3.09 × 10-10 cm2 s-1 and a charge transport resistance of 33.7 Ω. The prepared 2D MoO3-x/PEDOT:PSS composite films exhibit improved electrochromic performance, including fast switching speed (7 s for bleaching, 5 s for coloring), enhanced coloration efficiency (87.1 cm2 C-1), and large transmittance modulation (ΔT = 65%). This study shows outstanding potential for 2D MoO3-x nanoflakes in electrochromic applications and opens new avenues for optimizing the ion transport in inorganic-organic composites, which will be possibly inspired for other electrochemical devices.
