Abstract

Topotactic transitions, that is, reversible crystal structure changes due to controllable stoichiometry of material, offer substantial potential to control a wide variety of functionality in transition metal oxides, especially in systems with high ionic mobility and correlated electrons. Here the authors report on topotactic electrochromism with prominent coloration efficiency in SrCo0.66Fe0.34O3−δ associated with changes of electrical conductivity and electronic structure of the material. Changes in electron correlation lead to significant coloration and light absorption, which provides a general approach for utilizing topotactic transitions in electrochromic applications.
