Optical and Chromaticity Properties of Metal-Dielectric Composite-Based Multilayer Thin-Film Structures Prepared by RF Magnetron Sputtering

Abstract: Coated glass products, and especially the low-emissivity coatings, have become a common building material used in modern architectural projects. More recently, these material systems became common in specialized glazing systems featuring solar energy harvesting. Apart from achieving the stability of optical parameters in multilayer coatings, it is also important to have improved control over the design of visual color properties of the coated glass. We prepare metal-dielectric composite (MDC)-based multilayer … Show more

“…The accuracy of measured L values to the simulated values was between 0.07–0.1% as indicated by the grey colored film. However, the measured a and b values for both samples were found to be positive, and that agreed with the simulated values indicating a red and yellow color, respectively, and thus confirmed the gold color of the TiN film [ 31 ].…”

“…The chromaticity values of the gold TiN thin film were characterized based on the Hunter L , a , b color scale. The explanation of the Hunter Lab color space is presented in references [ 31 , 32 ]. The L value represents the black and white color depending on the values (0–100), and a and b values represent red to green and yellow to blue, respectively.…”

“…The low-E coatings are typically structured as dielectric/metal/dielectric (DMD) multilayer thin films deposited by various methods, promotes the strong and very wide-band reflection of thermal infrared wavelengths. Recently energy harvesting PV glass windows (contain thin-film coating) capable of on-site energy generation simultaneous with the functionality of tailoring the incident sunlight spectrum required for different crops that improve production yields, can be useful for the design and building of innovative and cost-effective greenhouses for horticultural industries [29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44].…”

“…Persuasively, in this nanotechnological century, these issues are now an important subject matter for the studies intended to design, develop, and establish the optimized growth processes for ultra-thin, and comparatively smoother layers of nanocompositetype metallic materials (on arbitrary substrate sublayer types) to overcome the problems related to ultra-thin layer materials growth. The motivation to solve the physical and structural issues related to ultrathin metal layer originates from our very recently published article [21], where the possible effects of metal dilution importing dielectric substance on their physical and apparent visual aesthetics were explained. However, in this work, we propose to develop a new nanocomposite-type thin-film material (Ag+ SiC) that can be found suitable for broadening the application range of advanced thin-film materials in ultra-stable coating design options with better control over their properties.…”
