Abstract

A coated article includes a low emissivity (low-E) coating having at least one infrared (IR) reflecting layer of a material such as silver, gold, or the like, and at least one high refractive index dielectric multilayer film. The high index dielectric multilayer film may be of or include a first high index layer of or including ZrSiN and/or ZrSiAlN, and a second high index layer of or including titanium oxide (e.g., TiO2). The first high index layer of or including ZrSiN and/or ZrSiAlN may be amorphous or substantially amorphous, and the second high index layer of or including titanium oxide may be substantially crystalline in certain example embodiments. The low-E coating may be used in applications such as monolithic or insulating glass (IG) window units, vehicle windows, or the like.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A coated article including a coating supported by a glass substrate, the coating comprising:
a first dielectric film on the glass substrate;
an infrared (IR) reflecting layer on the glass substrate, located over at least the first dielectric film;
a second dielectric film on the glass substrate, located over at least the IR reflecting layer, wherein the second dielectric film is located over at least said IR reflecting layer and below another IR reflecting layer;
wherein the second dielectric film comprises a layer comprising an oxynitride of Zr and Si, and contains more Zr than Si; and
wherein a layer comprising an oxide of titanium is provided in direct contact with the layer comprising the oxynitride of Zr and Si.

2. The coated article of claim 1 , wherein the layer comprising an oxynitride of Zr and Si has a metal content comprising from 30-80% Zr and from 3-25% Si (atomic %).

3. A coated article including a coating supported by a glass substrate, the coating comprising:
a first dielectric film on the glass substrate;
an infrared (IR) reflecting layer on the glass substrate, located over at least the first dielectric film;
a second dielectric film on the glass substrate, located over at least the IR reflecting layer;
wherein the first dielectric film comprises a layer comprising an oxynitride of Zr and Si, and contains more Zr than Si; and
wherein the layer comprising an oxynitride of Zr and Si has a metal content comprising from 30-80% Zr, from 3-25% Si, and from 15-50% Al (atomic %).

4. The coated article of claim 3 , wherein the coating further comprises another IR reflecting layer located on the glass substrate over at least the second dielectric film.

5. The coated article of claim 4 , wherein second dielectric film comprises a layer comprising an oxynitride of Zr and Si, and contains more Zr than Si.
