Abstract

A CVD process for depositing a zinc oxide coating is provided. The CVD process includes providing a moving glass substrate. The CVD process also includes forming a gaseous mixture of an alkyl zinc compound and an inert gas as a first stream, providing a first gaseous inorganic oxygen-containing compound in a second stream and providing a second gaseous inorganic oxygen-containing compound in the second stream, a third stream or in both the second and third streams. Additionally, the CVD process includes mixing the streams at or near a surface of the moving glass substrate and a zinc oxide coating is formed thereon. A method for forming a coated glass article is also provided. Additionally, a coated glass article is provided.
