Abstract
An electrochromic device comprising an oxidation coloring substance coloring in an oxidized state and a reduction coloring substance coloring in a reduced state which are formed on the surfaces of a pair of electrodes, respectively, and an electrolyte held between the two substances, wherein the oxidation coloring substance is a double salt containing an iron hexacyanoferrate and the reduction coloring substance is a tungsten-oxalic acid compound. The electrochromic device has a long life suitable for actual applications and a short response time and can operate at low applied voltages.
