Abstract

Multiple layer films of silver-silver oxide and metal oxide are produced on transparent substrates for purposes of solar energy control and production of architectural colors. Solar control properties and the transmitted and reflected colors of the article can be altered by varying the thicknesses of the films and/or the selection of metal oxide overcoat. The article produced can be used in a viewing closure and as a component in a solar energy collection system.
