Definitions
- the present invention is an improvement to electrically controllable devices with variable optical / energy properties, comprising the following stack of layers: a first glass-function substrate (V 1 );
- an electroactive system comprising or consisting of: at least one electroactive organic compound
- SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) a second substrate with a glass function (v 2 ).
- TCC electronically conductive layers
- Transparent Conductive Coating an example of which is a transparent conductive oxide TCO ("Transparent Conductive
- the compound (eai + ) is electrochromic (being, for example, 1,1'-diethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium diperchlorate) and that the compound (ea2) is electrochromic (for example being 5, 10-dihydro-5,10-phenothiazine) or non-electrochromic (being for example a ferrocene)
- electrochromic being, for example, 1,1'-diethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium diperchlorate
- the compound (ea2) is electrochromic (for example being 5, 10-dihydro-5,10-phenothiazine) or non-electrochromic (being for example a ferrocene)
- the redox reactions which are established under the action of the electric current are as follows:
- the electroactive medium (ea) is a medium in solution or gelled. It can also be contained in a self-supported polymer matrix as described in the international application PCT / FR2008 / 051160 filed on 25/06/2008 or in the European application EP 1786883.
- the medium (ea) In the case where the medium (ea) is in solution or gelled and therefore has no mechanical strength, it must be encapsulated in the "reservoir" zone delimited by the two glass plates (v x ), (v 2 ) arranged face to face with their internal surfaces each coated by the layer respectively (TCCi), (TCC2), and by a seal or encapsulating peripheral frame, electrical insulator.
- the filling of this reservoir zone is carried out by a orifice made in this peripheral joint by a relatively complex vacuum technique.
- FIG. 1 of the accompanying drawing schematically illustrates the configuration s' such a double glazing, which comprises a third glass sheet (v 3 ), facing the glass sheet (v 2 ), with the interposition of a blade of air or another gas, such as argon, between the sheets (v 2 ) and (v 3 ), the peripheral seal (not shown) being adapted to hold the assembly.
- a blade of air or another gas such as argon
- the glass sheets (v1) and (v2), located on the outside must be made of tempered glass because of the coefficient of thermal expansion of the glass.
- tempered glass has mini-flatness defects, which will lead to a color homogeneity problem during operation of the electrically controllable device.
- the electro-active medium in the liquid phase must allow the mobility of the electro-active species (eal) and (ea2), (eai + ) and (ea 2 + )
- it must therefore have a certain thickness, which must also allow the filling and must also be adjusted precisely to be thick enough to overcome the problems of non-homogeneity of the color of the glazing but not too thick not to harm the speed of this color change and good visibility through the glazing.
- Such a thickness is in practice between 100 .mu.m and 700 .mu.m.
- the Applicant Company has therefore sought to eliminate or reduce at least one of these numerous disadvantages, and in particular it has sought ways to control the thickness of the active medium other than by controlling the distance between the two. substrates, everything by seeking to simplify the method of manufacturing the electrically controllable device.
