Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A coated article is provided, having a coating supported by a glass substrate where the coating includes at least one color and/or reflectivity-adjusting absorber layer. The absorber layer(s) allows color tuning, and reduces the glass side reflection of the coated article and/or allows sheet resistance of the coating to be reduced without degrading glass side reflection. In certain example embodiments the absorber layer is provided between first and second dielectric layers which may be of substantially the same material and/or composition. In certain example embodiments, the coated article is capable of achieving desirable transmission, together with desired color, low reflectivity, and low selectivity, when having only one infrared (IR) reflecting layer of silver and/or gold. Coated articles according to certain example embodiments of this invention may be used in the context of insulating glass (IG) window units, monolithic windows, or the like.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A bronze colored coated article comprising a coating supported by a glass substrate, the coating comprising at least the following layers moving away from the glass substrate: a first dielectric layer comprising silicon nitride; a first contact layer; an IR reflecting layer comprising silver, wherein the coating has only one IR reflecting layer comprising silver; a second contact layer, the first and second contact layers each directly contacting…
