Abstract

A transparent substrate with a multilayer anti-glare coating includes a transparent substrate; a first coating layer formed on the transparent substrate and being formed of a first dielectric layer having a refractive index of n1; a second coating layer formed on the first coating layer and being formed of a metal oxide layer having a refractive index of n2; a third coating layer formed on the second coating layer and being formed of a second dielectric layer having a refractive index of n3; and a fourth coating layer formed on the third coating layer and being formed of a third dielectric layer having a refractive index of n4. The refractive indexes of the coating layers satisfy: n1=n3>n2>n4.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A transparent substrate with a multilayer anti-glare coating, the transparent substrate comprising:
a transparent substrate;
a first coating layer formed on the transparent substrate and being formed of a first dielectric layer having a refractive index of n1;
a second coating layer formed on the first coating layer and having a refractive index of n2;
a third coating layer formed on the second coating layer and being formed of a second dielectric layer having a refractive index of n3; and
a fourth coating layer formed on the third coating layer and being formed of a third dielectric layer having a refractive index of n4,
wherein n1=n3>n2>n4,
the second coating layer has an extinction coefficient within the range 0.01 to 0.03, and
the second coating layer comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of tungsten (W) oxide, iron (Fe) oxide and titanium (Ti) nitride, or a combination thereof.

2. The transparent substrate according to claim 1 , wherein n1 and n3 are within the range 1.9 to 2.5,
n2 is within the range 1.8 to 2.5, and
n4 is within the range 1.3 to 1.6.

3. The transparent substrate according to claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the first coating layer is 1 to 50 nm,
a thickness of the second coating layer is 10 to 150 nm,
a thickness of the third coating layer is 10 to 100 nm, and
a thickness of the fourth coating layer is 30 to 200 nm.

4. A glass for automobiles comprising the transparent substrate according to claim 1 , wherein the transparent substrate is installed at an angle of 50 to 70° from a direction perpendicular to the ground.

5. The transparent substrate according to claim 1 , wherein the first coating layer and the third coating layer comprise at least one selected from the group consisting of zinc oxide, tin oxide, zirconium oxide, zinc-tin oxide, titanium oxide, titanium oxynitride, niobium oxide, silicon nitride, silicon-aluminum nitride and titanium nitride.

6. The transparent substrate according to claim 1 , wherein the fourth coating layer comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of silicon oxide, silicon oxynitride, silicon oxycarbide, silicon-aluminum oxide and silicon-aluminum nitride, or a combination thereof.

7. A glass for automobiles comprising the transparent substrate with the multilayer coating according to claim 1 .
