The stability and response time of $WO_3$ thin films for EC device are critical problems being solved. Those are affected by the species of electrolyte, preparation conditions and fabricating methods of specimen. In this paper, we compared the stabilities of three kinds of tungsten oxide film in electrolyte. Each of three films was prepared by different manufacturing conditions, that is, one is a thermal oxidation film of tungsten metal deposited on pure glass substrate, another is a $WO_3$ film made on ITO glass directly, the other is a thermally oxidized film on tungsten plate. It was observed that thermally oxidized $WO_3$ films has a remarkable stability (the lifetime was above $10^6$ cycle). From these results, we found that the stability was closely related to the stoichiometric bonding between tungsten and oxygen atoms in addition to crystallinity and density of film.
