Optimizing electrochromism for plasmonic electronic paper: Inorganic vs organic

Paper in proceeding, 2019

The combination of plasmonic nanostructures and electrochromic materials for dynamic color generation has been of interest in recent years due to the possibility to make reflective displays in full color with extremely low power consumption compared to emissive displays. We show a comparison between two electrochromic materials, tungsten trioxide (inorganic) and PProDOTMe2 (organic), for electrical modulation of the resonantly reflected light from plasmonic nanostructures. The comparison focuses on achievable contrast, switching speed, coloration memory and power consumption.
