Abstract

See full text

The durability of thin metal coatings and particularly substantially transparent copper and silver plus noble metal coatings and their ability to withstand corrosive environments is improved by overcoating the metal layers with a double coating of dielectric. The first coating is made up of dielectric based on indium and/or zinc. The second coating is made up of dielectric based on indium and tin. These overcoatings are more effective than a single coating based on one metal or a single coating based upon the two metals.
