| abstract |
A laminated glass unit having at least two sheets of glass separated and bonded by a polymeric interlayer material, and further having multi-layer thin film coatings on each of the unbonded surfaces of the at least two glass sheets, is disclosed. Two or more of such laminated glass units can be utilized in various configurations to form an insulated glass unit. The thin films deposited on the unbonded glass surfaces have anti-reflective, iridescence-suppressing and solar control properties when suitable configurations, materials and layer thicknesses are chosen. The laminated glass unit and insulated glass units of the invention exhibit an excellent combination of low visible light reflectance and thermal insulating properties. |
