摘要
A cyclometalated diruthenium complex 2 bridged by 1,2,4,5-tetra(pyrid-2-yl)benzene with six carboxylic acid groups at two ends was synthesized.Monolayer and multilayer films FTO/TiO2/(2)n(Zr)(n=1,2)and FTO/SnO2:Sb/(2)n(Zr)(n=1-4)have been prepared via interfacial layer-by-layer coordination assembly of 2 with zirconium(IV)ions.All films show two consecutive redox couples in the potential range between 0 and+1.0 V vs.Ag/AgCl.These films exhibit reversible near-infrared electrochromism upon switching of redox potential.The response time of the films on SnO2:Sb is around a few seconds,while that on TiO2 is around a few tens of seconds.The film deposition cycles were found to have a great impact on the electrochromic performance.Among six films examined,the two-layered film on SnO2:Sb displays the best balanced performance with a contrast ratio of 56%at 1,150 nm and good cyclic stability(9%loss of contrast ratio after 1,000 continuous double-potential-switching cycles),which is superior to that of the previously reported electropolymerized films of a related diruthenium complex with the same bridging ligand.In addition,the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,scanning electron microscopy,and electron transfer mechanism of these films have been investigated.
