Abstract: A laminated vehicle window has different glass substrates and a low-emissivity (low-E) coating on an interior surface thereof, so that the low-E coating is to be located adjacent and exposed to the vehicle interior. In certain example embodiments, the low-E coating includes a transparent conductive oxide (TCO) layer of a material such as indium-tin-oxide (ITO). In certain example embodiments, the exterior glass substrate contains more iron, and is thus more absorbing of IR radiation, than the interior glass substrate.

Abstract: Certain example embodiments relate to lighting system covers that include AR-coated textured glass, and/or methods of making the same. In certain example embodiments, at least one light source is provided proximate to a cover comprising a glass substrate. The glass substrate includes an anti-reflective (AR) coating on the surface that is closer to the at least one light source, and the glass substrate is textured (e.g., such that it is substantially prismatic in texture) on the surface opposite the AR-coated surface. The surface of the glass substrate on which the AR coating is formed may be a flat, irregular, or textured matte. An optional AR coating also may be formed on the textured surface of the glass substrate.

Abstract: Certain example embodiments of this invention relate to refrigerator/freezer doors that include three substantially parallel, spaced apart glass substrates that effectively form two insulating glass units (IGUs), and/or methods of making the same. The substrates in the two IGUs have one or more surfaces coated with a low emissivity coating and also have one or more other surfaces coated with an antireflective coating. In certain example embodiments, one or more of the substrates may be low-iron substrates. For instance, certain example embodiments may include a center substrate that has an antireflective coating disposed on both major surfaces, whereas the outer substrates have low-E coatings disposed on inner surfaces thereof. Advantageously, certain example embodiments combine high energy efficiency with high light transmission.
