Abstract
An electrochromic device includes a first substrate having an electrically conductive material associated therewith, a second substrate having an electrically conductive material associated therewith, a chamber positioned in a center of the electrochromic device, an electrochromic medium contained within the chamber, at least one fill port extending between at least one of the first substrate and the second substrate and the chamber, at least one plug associated with the at least one fill port, and a metal sealing member disposed on a surface of the at least one of the first substrate and the second substrate. The metal sealing member configured to hermetically seal the at least one fill port.
