Switch speed determined by Concentration of Li+ electrolytes Density of matrix through which ions pass
Lithium Electrolyte IrO2 film hooked to positive = oxidation = removing Li+ from IrO2 film = absorbs light = appears dark
Lithium Electrolyte IrO2 film hooked to negative = reduction = pulling Li+ onto IrO2 film = clear
