Abstract
The subject of the invention is glazing which incorporates at least one electrically controllable system having variable optical and/or energy properties, especially in the form of a system comprising one or more reversible-insertion materials of the electrochromic-system type, in the form of an optical-valve or viologen-based system or in the form of a liquid-crystal or cholesteric-gel system. This glazing also includes at least one means for adjusting the optical appearance conferred on the said glazing by the said system, these means comprising at least one coating having antireflection properties in the visible.

- 16. Glazing comprising (a) at least one electrochromic system having variable optical and/or energy properties, (b) at least one coating for adjusting the optical appearance conferred on the said glazing by the said system, said at least one coating having antireflection properties in the visible, wherein said coating having antireflection properties is deposited on at least one of the external faces of said glazing and comprises a stack of at least two superposed thin layers having alternately high and low reflective indices, whose average refractive index is between 1.6 and 1.9, and is an SnO2/SiO2 or SnO2/SiO2/SnO2 stack or a graded-refractive-index layer, and (c) at least one coating for attenuating/modifying the color of the glazing in reflection, wherein said at least one coating of component (c) acts to lower C* saturation values in the (L,a*,b*) colorimetry system of the glazing in reflection.

18. Glazing comprising (a) at least one electrochromic system having variable optical and/or energy properties, (b) at least one coating for adjusting the optical appearance conferred on the said glazing by the said system, said at least one coating having antireflection properties in the visible, wherein said coating having antireflection properties is deposited on at least one of the external faces of said glazing and comprises a stack of thin layers having alternately high and low reflective indices or a graded-refractive-index layer, and (c) at least one coating for attenuating/modifying the color of the glazing in reflection, wherein the coating (c) is in contact with the electrically controllable system (a), in the form of a thin layer having a refractive index intermediate between those of the materials with which it is in contact on each of its faces.

34. Glazing comprising (a) at least one electrochromic system having variable optical and/or energy properties, (b) at least one coating for adjusting the optical appearance conferred on the said glazing by the said system, said at least one coating having antireflection properties in the visible, wherein said coating having antireflection properties is deposited on at least one of the external faces of said glazing and comprises a stack of thin layers having alternately high and low reflective indices or a graded-refractive-index layer, and (c) at least one coating for attenuating/modifying the color of the glazing in reflection, wherein the coating (c) is interposed between the electrochromic system (a) and a substrate for said glazing.
