US Patent 10969645 Faster switching low-defect electrochromic windows

Electrochromic devices comprise first and second conductors, wherein at least one of the first and second conductors is a multi-layered conductor. The electrochromic devices further comprise an electrochromic stack between the conductors adjacent to a substrate. The at least one multi-layered conductor comprises a metal layer sandwiched between a first non-metal layer and a second non-metal layer such that the metal layer does not contact the electrochromic stack.
