Abstract
The disclosed electrochromic element includes a first electrode, a second electrode opposed to the first electrode, an electrochromic layer disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode, and a plurality of first interconnections electrically connected to the first electrode. The first electrode has a single section in a first region overlapping with the electrochromic layer in a plan view. The plurality of first interconnections is electrically connected to the first electrode via a first lead-out electrode provided in a second region in contact with the first region in the plan view. A region between the plurality of first interconnections and the first electrode has a resistance lower than a region between adjacent first interconnections.

An electrochromic element comprising:
- a first electrode;
- a second electrode opposed to the first electrode;
- an electrochromic layer disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode;
- and
- a plurality of first interconnections electrically connected to the first electrode,
- wherein the first electrode has a single section in a first region overlapping with the electrochromic layer in a plan view,
- wherein the plurality of first interconnections are electrically connected to the first electrode via a first lead-out electrode provided in a second region in contact with the first region in the plan view,
- wherein an electrical path connecting one of the plurality of first interconnections to the first electrode and an electrical path connecting another of the plurality of first interconnections to the first electrode are independent of each other, and
