Hybrid light redirecting and light diffusing constructions
First Claim
1. A solar light redirecting glazing unit, comprising:
- a first glazing substrate comprising a first major surface and a second major surface;
a solar light redirecting layer disposed on the first major surface of the first glazing substrate, the solar light redirecting layer comprising a major surface forming an ordered arrangement of a plurality of microstructure prism structures;
a second glazing substrate comprising a first major surface and a second major surface;
a visible light diffusing layer disposed on the first major surface of the second glazing substrate; and
an intervening space between the solar light redirecting layer and the visible light diffusing layer.

Abstract
Solar light redirecting glazing units include light redirecting and light diffusing constructions. The solar light redirecting glazing units may include a glazing substrate, a visible light diffusing layer, and a light redirecting layer oriented such that incoming solar light contacts the visible light diffusing layer before contacting the light redirecting layer. The solar light redirecting glazing units may include a glazing substrate, a patterned visible light diffusing layer, and a light redirecting layer. The solar light redirecting glazing units may include two glazing substrates separated by an intervening space with a solar light redirecting layer disposed on one glazing substrate, and a visible light diffusing layer disposed on the other glazing substrate.
