Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a thermochromic window, and more particularly, to a thermochromic window in which the transmittance of sunlight is controlled according to temperature.
Recently, as the prices of chemical energy sources such as petroleum have skyrocketed, the need to develop new energy sources is growing. In addition, the importance of energy-saving technologies is increasing as well. In fact, more than 60% of household energy consumption is used for heating and cooling. In particular, 24% of the energy consumed by windows in general houses and buildings is consumed.
Accordingly, a variety of efforts have been made to reduce the energy consumed through the windows by increasing the airtightness and insulation properties of the windows while maintaining the aesthetic and visual characteristics of the building, which is the basic function of the windows. Typically, And a method of installing an insulating window.
Types of high-thermal-insulating windows include an argon gas-injected multi-layered window for injecting argon (Ar) gas into the multi-layered glass to prevent heat exchange, a vacuum window made of vacuum between the multi-layered glasses, and a low-E window . In addition, glasses that control the energy inflow through the sun by coating layers with thermal properties on windows are being studied.
In particular, Royglas is coated with a thin metal or metal oxide on the surface of glass, so that most of the visible rays coming through the window penetrate most of it to keep the room bright and effectively block the radiation of infrared rays. In summer, it blocks the heat outside the building, which reduces cooling and heating costs. However, due to the nature of reflection at wavelengths other than visible light, infrared rays emitted from the sun can not be introduced into the room, especially in winter, and the transmittance of sunlight can not be controlled according to the season (temperature).
Thus, when a material having a thermochromic effect is coated on a glass, visible light is emitted when the glass is above a certain temperature, but near infrared rays and infrared rays are blocked to prevent the room temperature from rising, thereby improving the cooling / heating energy efficiency A technique for thermochromic windows is being developed.
Particularly, in the case of the thermochromic window coated with vanadium dioxide (VO 2 ), which has a phase transition temperature close to a practically feasible temperature at 68 ° C. and has a large variation in optical constant (n, k) Research is underway.
FIG. 1 is a graph showing changes in transmittance of sunlight according to temperature before and after phase transition of a thermochromic window coated with a thermochromic thin film made of vanadium dioxide on one surface of a glass substrate.
As shown in Figure 1, by coating the thermochromic material on the glass, it can be seen that the transmittance of the sunlight, in particular in the near infrared region, changes before the phase transition (30 ℃) and after the phase transition (90 ℃), thereby The energy efficiency of cooling and heating in buildings and the like can be improved.
However, the thermochromic window of the single-layer structure in which only the vanadium dioxide thin film is coated on the substrate has a disadvantage in that the conversion efficiency in the near infrared region is only about 5%. Here, the conversion efficiency refers to the transmittance difference before and after the phase transition, and was calculated by giving different weights to each wavelength in the near infrared region.
Meanwhile, the thermochromic window may be designed as a multilayer to improve conversion efficiency and optical characteristics.
Conventionally, in order to improve crystallinity of vanadium dioxide coated on a substrate, a dielectric material such as TiO 2 or SiO 2 is coated to form a seed layer, and then vanadium dioxide is deposited on the seed layer. The coating produced a thermocomic window. However, in this case, the crystallinity of the coated vanadium dioxide thin film is improved, but there arises a problem that the difference in transmittance before and after phase transition in the near infrared region (800 to 1600 nm) becomes small.
In addition, a multi-layered film may be formed by using a material such as a-Si as a lower layer of the vanadium dioxide thin film. In this case, the difference in transmittance before and after phase transition in the near infrared region may be improved, but the crystallinity of the vanadium dioxide thin film is improved. It has the disadvantage of not being able to.
The present invention has been made to solve the problems of the prior art as described above, an object of the present invention is to provide a thermochromic window improved in the difference between the crystallinity of the thermochromic thin film and the transmittance difference before and after the phase transition of the thermochromic window To provide.

In addition, the thermochromic window may further include an oxide or nitride thin film formed on the thermochromic thin film, and the oxide or nitride thin film may be AlOx, SiOx, Nb 2 O 5 , TiO 2 , and Si 3. It may comprise a material of any one of N 4 .

In addition, the visible light transmittance of the thermochromic window can be improved.
