Several iron ion tinting forms at different redox or COD (chemical oxygen demand) conditions and their influential factors were given necessary explanations. The results reveal that the Fe^(3+)-O-Fe^(2+) structure is the real tinting reason of iron involved glasses, whereas the Si^(4+)-O-Fe^(3+) and Si^(4+)-O-Fe^(2+) formulations modify the glass colours. Under oxidizing melting condition, the amount of 4/6-coordinated Fe^(3+) increases and makes the glass colour yellowish. Conversely, reducing melting condition makes the 6-coordinated Fe^(2+) increased and gives much blue tint to the glass. The conventional tank furnace melting the very strong reducing condition, which is of high COD glass batch, is not suitable. The high ratio of ferrous/ferric in glass can be obtained with a new refining technology which contains no or little amount of refining agent.展开更多

In this case significant costs associated with rooftop rights, raiser and other inbuilding wiring may be avoided. While uncoated window glass introduces relatively small excessive loss into the propagation path, the situation is quite different with coated, “tinted” or laminated glass, which is frequently used to improve thermal and illumination conditions behind it. Insertion loss of such a window glass may be up to 30 dB, depending on type of a glass, carrier frequency, and angle of incidence of the radiation beam. We experimentally demonstrated a possibility of making windows covered by conductive coatings transparent for electromagnetic radiation. This has been achieved by removing a small share of the coating to the effect that non-conducting parts of the window surface split the conductive coating into areas narrow compared to the electromagnetic radiation wavelength.展开更多
