  • Patent number: 8945714
    Abstract: Example embodiments of this invention relate to a coated article including an infrared (IR) reflecting layer of a material such as silver or the like, for use in an insulating glass (IG) window unit for example. In certain example embodiments, the coating is a single-silver type coating, and includes an overcoat including an uppermost layer of or including silicon nitride and a layer of or including tin oxide immediately under and contacting the silicon nitride based overcoat. In certain example embodiments, the thicknesses of the silicon nitride based overcoat and the tin oxide based layer are balanced (e.g., substantially equal, or equal plus/minus about 10%). It has surprisingly been found that such balancing results in an improvement in thermal cycling performance and improved mechanical durability. In certain example embodiments, the coating may realize surprisingly good substantially neutral film side reflective coloration, and may achieve an improved visible transmission, SHGC ratio and low U-values.

  • Publication number: 20140357147
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a core made of a glass material so as to be capable of preventing generation of warpage in a printed circuit board due to a difference in a coefficient of thermal expansion at the time of manufacturing the printed circuit board. The core includes: an organic cloth; and a glass having the organic cloth formed therein. The core is manufactured in a form in which rigidity thereof is increased by impregnating the organic cloth having a negative coefficient of thermal expansion is impregnated in a liquid-phase glass, thereby making it possible to effectively prevent generation of warpage in the printed circuit board due to the difference in a coefficient of thermal expansion.
