Abstract

Disclosed is a coated article, for example an architectural transparency, or a vehicular transparency, or a reflecting article, as a decorative article. The article has a substrate, e.g., a substantially transparent substrate. The substrate has an optical coating on a surface thereof. The coating is a bilayer dielectric thin film having a thickness corresponding to a constructively interfering function of a wavelength of interest. The bilayer thin film is a metallic layer, which serves as an adhesion layer, with a dielectric atop the metallic layer which is a compound of the metal forming the metallic layer.
