First Claim
Patent Images
1. A sheet-like substrate having first and second general-opposed major surfaces, at least one of the major surfaces bearing a low-emissivity coating, the coating comprising, in sequence, from the substrate outwardly:
- a) an inner dielectric layer;
b) a first infrared-reflective layer;
c) a middle coat comprising a first zinc tin oxide film region, a tin oxide film region, and a second zinc tin oxide film region, wherein said tin oxide film region is positioned between said first and second zinc tin oxide film regions;
d) a second infrared-reflective layer; and
e) an outer dielectric layer.
