INFRARED-REFLECTING FILMS AND METHOD FOR MAKING THE SAME

摘要

There is provided single layer infrared-reflecting films and a method of making the same that provide enhanced reflectivity in an 800 nanometer to 2500 nanometer infrared waveband. The method comprises providing a substrate, depositing onto the substrate a mixture of an oxide matrix material and either a conductive metal dopant or a higher valence cation, and producing the infrared-reflecting film.
