MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641049632 A) filed by Dayananda Sagar College Of Engineering, Bangalore, Karnataka, on April 18, for 'method for enhancing the electrochemical performance of thin films.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Priya A Hoskeri; and Dr. C M Joseph.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention pertains to phthalocyanine thin films and a method for improving their electrochemical properties through controlled thermal annealing. The thin films are deposited via thermal evaporation and subsequently annealed under vacuum at selected temperatures to optimize performance. Electrochemical characteristics are assessed using cyclic voltammetry, demonstrating that the films exhibit reversible color transitions under varying redox potentials. Films treated at optimal annealing temperatures show improved electrochemical reversibility and enhanced coloration efficiency. These enhancements render the annealed Pc thin films highly suitable for use in energy storage devices, electrochromic display systems, and chemical sensors."
