Fast and fancy: Lithium that was originally disordered within the structure of the perovskite Li 0.18 Sr 0.66 Ti 0.5 Nb 0.5 O 3 can be induced into ordering within the yellow region of the unit cell by low temperatures and treatment with n ‐butyl‐lithium. The fast kinetics of lithium insertion, in connection with a color change, make this nontoxic, air‐stable material a suitable candidate for use in electrochromic systems or lithium‐storage batteries.
