Abstract

The invention relates to a transparent substrate, in particular made of glass, provided with a thin-film stack including at least one metallic layer with infrared reflection properties, in particular a low-emission layer, arranged between two dielectric-based coatings.According to the invention, the dielectric-based coating above the metallic layer has the following sequence of layers deposited in this order:a) layer(s) with material(s) with refractive index ni-2 of at most 2.2;b) layer(s) with material(s) with refractive index ni-1 at least 0.3 less than that of the last layer(s) ni;c) last layer(s) with material(s) with refractive index ni substantially equal to ni-2.
