Conductive conjugated polymers have been utilized as electrochromics, materials that change color upon charge injection/charge removal. We process many new compositions of polythiophenes into fiber by electrostatic spinning or melt drawing and we have demonstrated that these fibers are electrochromic. As a demonstration, we will show an array of electrochromic micropatterned micro/nanofiber mats obtained from electrostatic spinning and photolithography that change color between orange and blue.
