Abstract
The invention provides a glazing that includes a substrate on which there is provided a coating comprising carbon nanotubes. The glazing can be an IG unit comprising two spaced-apart panes bounding a between-pane space, the IG unit having at least one exterior surface on which there is provided a transparent conductor coating comprising carbon nanotubes. The glazing can alternatively be a laminated glass assembly comprising two panes of glass and an interlayer comprising carbon nanotubes sandwiched therebetween. Monolithic substrate embodiments are also provided. In certain embodiments, the coating comprises both dielectric film and carbon nanotubes.
