Abstract:
1. A method of making a coated article comprising a coating supported by a glass substrate to form a semi-transparent mirror, the method comprising: providing a glass substrate; forming a reflective metal-inclusive layer, directly or indirectly, on the glass substrate; forming a silicon oxide inclusive layer, directly or indirectly, on the reflective metallic layer; and forming a titanium oxide inclusive layer, directly or indirectly, on the silicon oxide inclusive layer, wherein the metal-inclusive layer is formed so as to reflect incoming light away from the glass substrate such that substantially less incoming light would be reflected away from the glass substrate if lighting were provided on a side of the glass substrate opposite the coating than if no lighting were provided, and so that a percentage of reflectance of incoming light by the mirror is from about 60 to 80% and a percentage of visible transmission through the mirror is from about 20 to 40%, wherein the coated article has a sheet resistance of at least about 10 ohms/square, wherein the metal-inclusuve layer comprises aluminum and is provided at a thickness of about 2-7 nm, wherein the silicon oxide inclusive layer has a thickness of about 80-90 nm, and wherein the titanium oxide inclusive layer has a thickness of about 50-60 nm.
