LOW-EMISSIVITY TEMPERED GLASS INCLUDING SPACER LAYERS

摘要

Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and apparatus for forming low emissivity panels that may include a first reflective layer, a second reflective layer, and a spacer layer disposed between the first reflective layer and the second reflective layer. In some embodiments, the spacer layer may have a thickness of between about 20 nm and 90 nm. The spacer layer may include a bi-metal oxide that may include tin, and may further include one of zinc, aluminum, or magnesium. The spacer layer may have a substantially amorphous structure. Moreover, the spacer layer may have a substantially uniform composition throughout the thickness of the spacer layer. The low emissivity panel may be configured to have a color change as determined by Rg &Dgr;E (i.e. as determined on the glass side) that is less than about 1.7 in response to an application of a heat treatment to the low emissivity panel.
