The anode electrochromic material and the cathode electrochromic material can be assembled into a complementary electrochromic device, and the complementary device can improve the whole electrochromic performance such as optical contrast, color change, spectral absorption range and the like. Currently, the existing electrochromic display panel has the following problems:
1) theoretically, only the three basic colors of Cyan (Cyan), Magenta (Magenta) or Magenta (Magenta) and Yellow (Yellow) are mixed together in equal proportion to obtain black, but because of the limitations of the current manufacturing process level, the purity of the manufactured product is not high enough, and the CMY addition result is actually only a dark red color;
