CONDUCTIVE FILM FORMATION DURING GLASS DRAW

摘要

Methods for coating a glass substrate as it is being drawn, for example, during fusion draw or during fiber draw are described. The coatings are conductive metal oxide coatings which can also be transparent. The conductive thin film coated glass substrates can be used in, for example, display devices, solar cell applications and in many other rapidly growing industries and applications. The coatings are applied by spraying an aerosol comprising a metal halide on the hot glass, whereby the halide decomposes to oxide.
