Mirror having reflective layer of or including silicon aluminum

摘要

Embodiments relate to mirrors having a reflective layer of or including silicon aluminum (e.g., SiAl). The mirrors may be first surface mirrors, or second surface mirrors. The SiAl layer may be provided between dielectric layers. The mirrors may be flat or bent in different instances, and may or may not be heat treated. In certain example instances, such mirrors may be used in interior residential, commercial, appliance, and/or other applications.

主权项

1. A mirror, comprising:
a glass substrate; a metallic or substantially metallic reflective layer comprising silicon aluminum provided on the glass substrate; the metallic or substantially metallic reflective layer comprising silicon aluminum being located between at least first second dielectric layers, and wherein the first dielectric layer is located between at least the glass substrate and the metallic or substantially metallic reflective layer comprising silicon aluminum; wherein the layer comprising silicon aluminum comprises, on a weight basis, more silicon than aluminum; and a protective layer comprising zirconium oxide on the glass substrate over the reflective layer and over the first and second dielectric layers.
