Description

This project will involve fabrication of proprietary electrochromic devices on flexible substrates using non-vacuum solution based processes. One of the key objective of the post-doctoral project will be to characterize long term durability performance of Argil electrochromic devices using industry standard testing protocols. Identify durability issues that may exist and develop solutions to improve long term durability.

Desired Knowledge

Material Science, Thin Film Device fabrication, Solution Processing Techniques, Device Characterization, Failure Analysis.
