Electrochromic unit
First Claim
1. An electrochromic unit consisting of an electrochemical cell, with at least two electrodes, an ion conductor positioned between the electrodes and an electrochromic material, characterized in that the ion conductor is a proton exchange membrane and said ion conductor is the carrier to which the electrodes are bilaterally applied, wherein the electrodes are metal electrodes, and wherein the electrochromic material is located on a side of an electrode carrying it remote from the ion conductor.

Abstract
An electrochromic unit (1) having an electrochemical cell with at least two electrodes (3, 4) applied to a carrier, an electrolyte (2) located between the electrodes (3, 4) and an electrochromic material (7), such as an electrochromic polymer, applied to one of the electrodes (3), is characterized by a proton exchange membrane (2) as a solid electrolyte and carrier for the bilaterally applied electrodes (3, 4), the electrochromic material (7) being positioned on the side of the electrode (3) carrying it remote from the membrane (2).
