Laminated glass articles and process for making same
First Claim
1. A laminated glass article comprising at least a first layer, a second layer fused to the first layer, and an optical property difference between the first layer and the second layer,wherein the first layer comprises a first glass composition, and the second layer comprises a second glass composition, andwherein the optical property difference comprises at least one of:
- (a) a transmission profile difference between a transmission profile of the first layer and a transmission profile of the second layer in a wavelength range from 200 nm to 2500 nm;
or(b) a light-polarizing difference, whereby the second layer is light-polarizing with respect to electromagnetic irradiation in the wavelength range from 200 nm to 2500 nm;
or(c) a refractive index difference between a refractive index n1 of the first layer and a refractive index n2 of the second layer of at least 0.005, wherein one of the first layer or the second layer comprises a base glass composition and the other of the first layer or the second layer comprises the base glass composition and a dopant in an amount sufficient to cause the refractive index difference.

Abstract
A laminated glass article includes at least a first layer, a second layer in direct contact with the first layer, and an optical property difference between the first layer and the second layer. The optical property difference includes at least one of: (a) a transmission profile difference between a transmission profile of the first and second layers in a wavelength range from 200 nm to 2500 nm; or (b) a light-polarizing difference, whereby the second layer is light-polarizing with respect to electromagnetic irradiation in the wavelength range from 200 nm to 2500 nm; or (c) a refractive index difference between refractive indices of the first and second layers of at least 0.005, wherein one layer includes a base glass composition and the other layer includes the base glass composition and a dopant in an amount sufficient to cause the refractive index difference.
