A projection arrangement for a head-up display, including a composite pane, including an outer pane and an inner pane, which are joined to one another via a thermoplastic intermediate layer, having an upper edge and a lower edge and an HUD region; an electrically conductive coating on the surface of the outer pane or the inner pane facing the intermediate layer or provided within the intermediate layer; and a projector that is aimed at the HUD region; wherein the light of the projector has at least one p-polarised portion and wherein the electrically conductive coating has, in the spectral range from 400 nm to 650 nm, only a single local reflection maximum for p-polarised light, with this maximum in the range from 510 nm to 550 nm.

Provided are novel energy-efficient signal-transparent window assemblies and methods of fabricating thereof. These window assemblies are specifically configured to allow selective penetration of electromagnetic wavelengths greater than 0.5 millimeters, representing current and future wireless signal spectrum. This signal penetration is provided while IR blocking properties are retained. Furthermore, the windows assemblies remain substantially transparent within the visible spectrum with no specific features detectable to the naked eye. This unique performance is achieved by patterning conductive layers such that the conductive layer edges remain protected during most fabrication steps and the fabrication. As such, the conductive layers are encapsulated and being separated from the environment while retaining separation between individual disjoined structures of these layers. For example, a barrier layer and/or a dielectric layer may extend over the conductive layer edge. The patterning is achieved by forming photoresist structures on the substrate and depositing a low-E stack over these photoresist structures.

Due to the increased glazed area of modern vehicles, especially the large panoramic glass roofs, we have seen a substantial growth in the use solar control glass and coatings. The solar glass compositions and coatings are expensive to manufacture. While solar coatings are more efficient than compositions, they typically cannot be used on monolithic glazing as they are not durable. They must be applied to one of the surfaces on the inside of a laminate. Most of these products also introduce an undesirable color shift. The invention provides a coating that can be used on glass to produce a laminated or monolithic glazing with a neutral gray solar control coating which also has anti-reflective properties and low emissivity.

A glazing includes at least one glass sheet provided on one of the faces with an electrical network having resistance strips and collector strips, in which at least one portion of one face includes at least one strip obtained from an electrically conductive composition including a silver paste, the strip being in contact with another strip obtained from an electrically conductive composition including a copper paste, the other strip obtained from an electrically conductive composition including a copper paste being completely covered with a protective enamel layer.

A laminated glazing includes two transparent substrates which are separated by a lamination interlayer, and intended for fitting out buildings or vehicles. One of the transparent substrates is coated with a functional coating capable of acting on solar radiation and/or infrared radiation, and a low emissivity (so-called “low E”) coating is provided on one of the faces of the second substrate.

The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display panel having a predetermined size, containing a wiring film formed of a metal, an insulating film containing an inorganic substance and a substrate formed of a non-alkali glass, in which the metal has the product of a Young's modulus (E) and a thermal expansion coefficient (α) at room temperature falling within a predetermined range, α of the inorganic substance is smaller than that of the non-alkali glass, the non-alkali glass has E of from 70 GPa to 95 GPa and α of from 32×10.sup.−7 to 45×10.sup.−7 (1/° C.) in which E and α satisfies a predetermined formula, and has a predetermined composition.

Methods for making solid-state laminate electrode assemblies include methods of forming a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) by ion implanting nitrogen and/or phosphorous into the glass surface by ion implantation.

The invention relates to a glass substrate including a stack of coating layers having control properties, in which stack comprises at least one niobium metal layer located between a layer of a dielectric material selected from Si.sub.3N.sub.4 or TiOx and a layer of a protective metal material selected from TIN or Ni—Cr, conferring solar control and heat resistance properties on the glass substrate.

The present invention relates to coating glass for architectural or automotive use, either monolithic or laminated, having solar control properties. The coating consists of several layers of different metal oxide semiconductors (TiO.sub.2, ZnO, ZrO.sub.2, SnO.sub.2, AlO.sub.x) and a layer of metallic nanoparticles, which when superimposed on a pre-established order give the glass solar control properties. In particular the use of protective layers of n-type semiconductors around the metallic nanoparticles layer. It also relates to the method for obtaining the coating by means of the aerosol-assisted chemical vapor deposition technique, using precursor solutions containing an organic or inorganic salt (acetates, acetylacetonates, halides, nitrates) of the applicable elements and an appropriate solvent (water, alcohol, acetone, acetylacetone, etc.). The synthesis is performed at a temperature between 100 and 600° C. depending on the material to be deposited. A nebulizer converts the precursor solution into an aerosol which is submitted with a gas to the substrate surface, where due to the temperature the thermal decomposition of the precursor occurs and the deposition of each layer of the coating occurs.
