Smart-Windows with thin films of tungsten trioxide in the fenestration of buildings help to regulate heat transfer though windows and thus to reduce energy consumption for climatization.This approach is coast efficient and may contribute significantly to CO2 reduction in the atomsphere. For the best performance of the smart window it is essential to understand what happens in the tungsten film and how to optimize the coloration process. Different spectroscopic techniques are employed to investigate the electrochromic coloring process in thin tungsten films. Ramanspectroscopy reveals the differant crystalline phases of WO3 which occur during coloration. Simultaneous measuring the absorption and the current allows one to correlate the degree of coloration with the incorporated charge and with the crystalline phase of the material.
