  • Publication number: 20190226077
    Abstract: A coated article includes a low emissivity (low-E) coating having at least one infrared (IR) reflecting layer of a material such as silver, gold, or the like, and at least one high refractive index layer of or including titanium oxide and at least one additional metal. A doped titanium oxide layer(s) is designed and deposited in a manner so as to be amorphous or substantially amorphous (as opposed to crystalline) in the low-E coating, so as to better withstand optional heat treatment (HT) such as thermal tempering and reduce haze. The high index layer may be a transparent dielectric high index layer in preferred embodiments, which may be provided for antireflection purposes and/or color adjustment purposes, in addition to having thermal stability.

  • Publication number: 20190108002
    Abstract: A system and method for automatic instrumentation of mobile applications is disclosed. Mobile applications are typically executed in mobile runtime environments or operating system that is restricted compared to their conventional counterparts. Those restrictions include features that allow one to examine and modify code of application during the runtime of the application. Those features that are used by instrumentation based monitoring systems dedicated for conventional applications are thus not available for the instrumentation of mobile application. The disclosure describes a system and method that allows to automatically instrument in a static way, either by persistently placing instrumentation code into mobile applications or by persistently adapting mobile applications in a way to perform a static instrumentation on application startup.

  • Patent number: 10227819
    Abstract: Example embodiments of this invention relate to a coated article having a low-E coating including at least one infrared (IR) reflecting layer of silver that is doped with a material such as SiAl, SiZn, or SiZnCu. The IR reflecting layer(s) is part of a low-E coating, and may be sandwiched between at least transparent dielectric layers. A silver based IR reflecting layer doped in such a manner for example provides for improved corrosion resistance and chemical durability of the layer and the overall coating, and improved stability such as reduced haze upon optional heat treatment (HT), while maintaining good optical properties, compared to an Ag IR reflecting layer that is not doped.
