摘要： Large contrast ratio and rapid switching laminated electrochromic (EC) polymer device (50b) includes transparent electrode (42), cathodic EC polymer (44b), gel electrolyte (46), and counter electrode (52). Preferably the cathodic EC polymer is a poly(3,4 propylenedioxythiophene) derivative, PProDOT Me2. Counter-electrode (52) is a conductive coating deposited on transparent substrate, with preferred coatings including gold and highly conductive carbon. Lithography and sputtering can be employed to pattern a gold layer, while screen printing can be employed to similarly pattern graphite. Empirical studies of preferred device indicate a color change of high contrast ratio of transmittance (> 50 %T) is rapidly (0.5 1s) obtained upon applied 2.5V, repeatable to at least 10,000 times, as estimated by electrochemistry. Dual layer EC devices including PProDOT Me2 are also disclosed, as are methods for synthesizing preferred EC polymers.

摘要： The present invention employs an optimized cross-sectional shape for a ferromagnetic shape memory alloy (FSMA) composite that is used in a spring-type actuator, an improved hybrid magnetic trigger for use in FSMA based actuators, an a FSMA composite based spring type actuator, an a FSMA based spring type actuator including a stack of triggering units and FSMA springs, a FSMA composite based torque actuator. The invention also includes a model that can be employed to evaluate different materials being considered as components a FSMA for a FSMA composite used in either a FSMA based torque actuator or a FSMA spring actuator.
