Provided is an electrochromic element, including: a pair of electrodes; and an electrochromic layer disposed between the pair of electrodes and containing a plurality of kinds of organic electrochromic compounds, in which: at least one kind of the plurality of kinds of organic electrochromic compounds includes an organic electrochromic compound having an absorption peak in a wavelength region of 700 nm or more during coloring thereof; and when an optical density in a decolored state thereof is defined as 0, a fluctuation ratio of a transmittance in a wavelength region of from 650 nm or more to 700 nm or less with respect to a central transmittance is within ±15% at an optical density of 0.3.
There is provided an EC device having stability against redox reaction cycles, high transparency, i.e., the EC device does not absorb light in the visible region in a bleached state, and having excellent response speed. The electrochromic device includes a pair of electrodes and a composition arranged between the pair of electrodes, the composition containing an electrolyte and an organic electrochromic compound, in which the organic electrochromic compound includes an electrochromic portion that exhibits electrochromic properties and an aromatic ring directly bonded to the electrochromic portion, the electrochromic portion forms one conjugated plane, an atom of the aromatic ring and adjacent to an atom bonded to the electrochromic portion has a substituent having a volume equal to or larger than the volume of a methyl group, and a cathodically electrochromic organic compound is further contained in addition to the organic electrochromic compound.
