- It isn't clear exactly what you are looking for. You may find something
- of interest in "electrochromic" materials. These are used in
- electrochemical devices and have the property of changing color according to
- the applied voltage. Typically they respond in times of the order of
- seconds, and may be cycled 100,000 times.
