- the transparent layer 104 when the atomic composition ratio of tin oxide becomes excessively large, the resistance value increases, and it is necessary to apply a relatively high voltage when used as a heater film. The light scattering phenomenon increases due to the relationship with the TiO film formed on layer 104.

- the transparent electrode 202, the electrochromic layer 222, the electrode / reflective film 228, and the transparent substrate 214 are provided on the back surface side of the light transmission unit 100 in this order sequentially from the side close to the light transmission unit 100.
- the electochromic layer 222 has the oxidation coloring layer 204, the electrolyte 206, and the reduction coloring layer 208 with a side force close to the light transmission portion 100 in this order. Also in this case, it is possible to provide an anti-fogging and anti-glare element that has high environmental resistance and does not impair the original color tone of the EC element.
- the electrode / reflection film 228 may be formed of, for example, Cr, Z, A1, or the like.
- FIG. 12B shows still another example of the configuration of the antifogging element 10.
- the electochromic layer 222 has the same or similar configuration as the electochromic layer 222 described with reference to FIG. Also in this case, it is possible to provide an anti-fogging / anti-glare element that has high environmental resistance and does not impair the original color tone of the EC element.
- the antifogging element of the present invention can be suitably used for, for example, an automotive water mirror, particularly an automotive water mirror having an antifogging / antiglare function.
- FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of an antifogging element 10 according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a view showing spectral characteristics of a transparent layer 104.
- FIG. 3 is a diagram showing spectral characteristics of a transparent layer 104.
