Abstract: A process for depositing on a surface of a substrate a layer based on a metal oxide doped with magnesium or a mixed metal oxide containing magnesium. The process includes providing a substrate having a surface, forming a gaseous mixture comprising a non-halogenated source of a metal and a source of magnesium, delivering the gaseous mixture to the surface of the substrate, and depositing the layer based on a metal oxide doped with magnesium or a mixed metal oxide containing magnesium on the surface of the substrate.

Abstract: Coated Glazing comprising a pane of glass having an innermost surface and an outermost surface, and a coating layer (e.g. a titania coating and an underlying fluorine-doped tin oxide coating) on the outermost surface of the pane. The glazing has an emissivity of 0.7 or less and its outermost coated surface is both hydrophilic and photoactive (after any necessary initial activation period) with a water droplet contact angle of 30° or less, the glazing thereby having the capability of reducing or preventing the tendency for condensation to form on its outermost surface and the facility for maintaining the water droplet contact angle at or below 30°. Also disclosed is a method of reducing or preventing the tendency for condensation to form on the outermost surface of a glazing.
