20140186636 | BARRIER LAYERS COMPRISING NI-INCLUSIVE TERNARY ALLOYS, COATED ARTICLES INCLUDING BARRIER LAYERS, AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME - Certain example embodiments relate to Ni-inclusive ternary alloy being provided as a barrier layer for protecting an IR reflecting layer comprising silver or the like. The provision of a barrier layer comprising nickel, chromium, and/or molybdenum and/or oxides thereof may improve corrosion resistance, as well as chemical and mechanical durability. In certain examples, more than one barrier layer may be used on at least one side of the layer comprising silver. In still further examples, a Ni | 07-03-2014 |
20140242382 | COATED ARTICLE WITH LOW-E COATING HAVING TITANIUM OXIDE LAYER AND/OR NICR BASED LAYER(S) TO IMPROVE COLOR VALUES AND/OR TRANSMISSION, AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME - Certain example embodiments of this invention relate to a coated article including a low-E coating. In certain example embodiments, a titanium oxide inclusive bottom layer stack and/or a NiCr-based layer(s) are designed to improve b* coloration values and/or transmission of the coated article. These layer stack portions also are advantageous in that they permit a double-silver coated article to achieve (i) an LSG value (T | 08-28-2014 |
20150064480 | COATED ARTICLE WITH LOW-E COATING INCLUDING TIN OXIDE INCLUSIVE LAYER(S) WITH ADDITIONAL METAL(S) - A coated article includes a coating, such as a low emissivity (low-E) coating, supported by a substrate (e.g., glass substrate). The coating includes at least one dielectric layer including tin oxide that is doped with another metal(s). The coating may also include one or more infrared (IR) reflecting layer(s) of or including material such as silver or the like, for reflecting at least some IR radiation. In certain example embodiments, the coated article may be heat treated (e.g., thermally tempered, heat bent and/or heat strengthened). Coated articles according to certain example embodiments of this invention may be used in the context of windows, including monolithic windows for buildings, IG windows for buildings, etc. | 03-05-2015 |

20150079409 | COATED ARTICLE WITH LOW-E COATING INCLUDING ZINC OXIDE INCLUSIVE LAYER(S) WITH ADDITIONAL METAL(S) - A coated article includes a coating, such as a low emissivity (low-E) coating, supported by a substrate (e.g., glass substrate). The coating includes at least one dielectric layer including zinc oxide that is doped with another metal(s). The coating may also include one or more infrared (IR) reflecting layer(s) of or including material such as silver or the like, for reflecting at least some IR radiation. In certain example embodiments, the coated article may be heat treated (e.g., thermally tempered, heat bent and/or heat strengthened). Coated articles according to certain example embodiments of this invention may be used in the context of windows, including monolithic windows for buildings, IG windows for buildings, etc. | 03-19-2015 |
20150140354 | HEAT TREATABLE COATED ARTICLE WITH LOW-E COATING HAVING ZINC STANNATE BASED LAYER BETWEEN IR REFLECTING LAYERS AND CORRESPONDING METHOD - A coated article is provided which may be heat treated (e.g., thermally tempered) in certain example instances. In certain example embodiments, the coated article includes a low-emissivity (low-E) coating having a zinc stannate based layer provided over a silver-based infrared (IR) reflecting layer, where the zinc stannate based layer is preferably located between first and second silver based IR reflecting layers. The zinc stannate based layer may be provided between and contacting (i) an upper contact layer of or including Ni and/or Cr (or Ti, or TiOx), and (ii) a layer of or including silicon nitride. | 05-21-2015 |
