ELECTRO-OPTIC SUB-ASSEMBLIES AND ASSEMBLIES HAVING AN ELECTROCHROMIC GEL LAYER AND METHODS OF MAKING

Abstract:

An electro-optic sub-assembly and method of making that includes a substrate web and an electrically conductive layer disposed on the substrate web. An electroactive gel layer is disposed on the electrically conductive layer and includes an electroactive component dispersed in a polymeric matrix. The electroactive gel layer may include at least one electrochromic component. Also provided is an electro-optic assembly and method of making that includes a cathodic sub-assembly and an anodic sub-assembly.
