The fabrication of such an all-solid-state EC device using the combination of amorphous WO{sub 3} film as the electrochromic layer and VO{sub 2} as the counter electrode were studied. Lithiation studies of two transition metal oxides (WO{sub 3} and VO{sub 2}) were done for their use as base electrochromic layer and counter electrode layer in the solid device. A dry method of lithiation of the device is proposed and characterized completely for its use in the fabrication of EC device. The properties of thermally evaporated LiAlF{sub 4} were also studied for its use as ion conducting layer. Using these three materials an all-solid-state electrochromic device has been fabricated and studied for its use as ``smart window``.
