Electrochromic light controlling panel
First Claim
1. An infra-red reflecting and electrochromic light controlling panel which comprises a first transparent plate (1) made of glass or plastic;
- a transparent electroconductive film (2);
an interlayer film made of a polyelectrolyte;
a first tungsten oxide film (4), an infra-red reflecting and electroconductive metal film (5), a second tungsten oxide film (6) and a transparent plate (7) made of glass or a plastic which are laminated in said order; and
a device for applying potential between said transparent electroconductive film and said infra-red reflecting and electroconductive metal film whereby light transmission is controlled by applying positive or negative potential to said first tungsten oxide film.

Abstract
Infra-red reflecting electrochromic light controlling panel comprising, successively in laminated structure, first transparent plate, a transparent electroconductive film, an interlayer of polymer electrolyte, first tungsten oxide film, an infra-red reflecting and electroconductive metal film, second tungsten oxide film and second transparent plate. The first tungsten oxide film is colored when it is applied to negative voltage. The panel can be used as an infra-red reflecting window which regulates the transmission of visible light and solar energy by applying electric field to the first tungsten oxide film.
