Abstract
Article that includes optically-transmissive metal layer on light-reflective metal layer. Optically-transmissive metal layer has composition including at least about ten molar % of chromium. Article further includes optically-transmissive metal-adhering layer on optically-transmissive metal layer. Optically-transmissive metal-adhering layer has composition including metal oxide. Article also includes optically-transmissive protective layer on optically-transmissive metal-adhering layer. Optically-transmissive protective layer has composition including organic moiety-containing polymer. Method that includes providing light-reflective metal layer. Method also includes forming optically-transmissive metal layer on light-reflective metal layer wherein optically-transmissive metal layer has composition including at least about ten molar % chromium. Method further includes forming optically-transmissive metal-adhering layer on optically-transmissive metal layer wherein optically-transmissive metal-adhering layer has composition including metal oxide. Method additionally includes forming optically-transmissive protective layer, having composition including organic moiety-containing polymer, on optically-transmissive metal-adhering layer.
