Patent ID: 6917347

Claim:
A component that is reflective for broadcast-frequency energy, comprising: a nonmetallic substrate having a substrate surface; and a layered coating overlying and contacting the substrate, the layered coating comprising: an electrically conductive deposited metallic layer overlying and contacting the substrate surface, and a layer of a white paint overlying and contacting the electrically conductive layer, wherein the white paint comprises a plurality of particles comprising a plurality of pigment particles, wherein each pigment particle has a composition of A[xAl(1−x)Ga] 2 O 4 (δD), A is selected from the group consisting of zinc, cadmium, and magnesium, D is a dopant selected from the group consisting of a cationic dopant having an ionic valence greater than +2 and an anionic dopant, the value of x is from 0 to 1, and the value of δ is from 0 to about 0.2, and a binder mixed with the particles to form a mixture, wherein the binder is selected from the group consisting of an organic binder and an inorganic binder.
