Patent number: 8940400Abstract: An insulating glass (IG) window unit includes first and second substrates, and a low-emissivity (low-E) coating supported by one of the substrates. The low-E coating has two silver based infrared (IR) reflecting layers and allows the IG window unit to realize an increased SHGC to U-value ratio, and an increased thickness ratio of an upper silver based layer of the coating to a bottom silver based layer of the coating. The low-E coating is designed to have a low film-side reflectance, so that for example when the low-E coating is used on surface number three of an IG window unit the IG window unit can realize reduced visible reflectance as viewed from the outside of the building on which the IG window unit is mounted or is to be mounted.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 2013Date of Patent: January 27, 2015Assignee: Guardian Industries Corp.Inventors: Francis Wuillaume, Brent Boyce

Furthermore, an oxide layer can be formed between the surface of the substrate and the transparent thin film for improving the stability of the transparent thin film adhering to the surface of the substrate. In addition, the process temperature according to the present invention is less than 100; and the transparent thin film according to the present invention requires no metal- or fluorine-containing precursor. Thereby, the costs for industrial applications can be reduced substantially. It is also suitable for the substrates with less temperature tolerance such as metal, nonmetal, and polymer-like substrates. Hence, the applicable industries are extensive.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 27, 2012Publication date: July 3, 2014Applicant: METAL INDUSTRIES RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT CENTREInventor: METAL INDUSTRIES RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT CENTRE
