  • Patent number: 10060180
    Abstract: The invention provides flash-treated transparent conductive coatings based on indium tin oxide. Some embodiments provide a method that involves depositing a substoichiometric indium tin oxide film on a glass pane, and thereafter flash treating the substoichiometric indium tin oxide film to produce a flash-treated indium tin oxide film. Other embodiments provide a multiple-pane insulating glass unit having a flash-treated indium tin oxide film on an internal surface.

  • Publication number: 20180134615
    Abstract: The invention provides a glass sheet or another transparent substrate on which there is provided a static-dissipative coating. The static-dissipative coating includes a film comprising titania. The film comprising titania preferably is exposed so as to define an outermost face of the static-dissipative coating. The static-dissipative coating is characterized by an indoor dust collection factor of less than 0.145.

  • Publication number: 20170167014
    Abstract: A method of depositing coating onto both sides of a substrate is provided, which includes steps of upwardly sputtering one or more lower targets to deposit a sacrificial coating onto a second surface and downwardly sputtering one or more upper targets to deposit a first functional coating onto a first surface, washing the substrate with one or more washers to remove the sacrificial coating from the second surface while leaving intact the first functional coating on the first surface, and upwardly sputtering the one or more upper targets to deposit a second functional coating onto the second surface.
