This study investigates the impact of indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes on the performance of smart windows utilizing reversible metal electrodeposition (RME). RME is a promising technique for fabricating electrochromic devices, offering dynamic control over light transmission. ITO electrodes, known for their high conductivity and transparency, play a critical role in facilitating the electrochemical processes that govern the reversible metal deposition and dissolution on the window surface. The effects of ITO electrode characteristics, such as conductivity, surface morphology, and transparency, are explored in relation to the electric and optical performance of the smart window. Long-term measurements are conducted with voltage applied over several hours to assess the durability and performance of the electrodes under operation.
