Abstract:
Certain example embodiments relate to a coated article including at least one infrared (IR) reflecting layer of a material such as silver or the like in a low-E coating, and methods of making the same. In certain cases, at least one layer of the coating is of or includes nickel and/or titanium (e.g., Ni x Ti y O z ). The provision of a layer including nickel titanium and/or an oxide thereof may permit a layer to be used that has good adhesion to the IR reflecting layer, and reduced absorption of visible light (resulting in a coated article with a higher visible transmission). When a layer including nickel titanium oxide is provided directly over and/or under the IR reflecting layer (e.g., as a barrier layer), this may result in improved chemical and mechanical durability. Thus, visible transmission may be improved if desired, without compromising durability; or, durability may simply be increased.

Claim (Index 34):
A method of making an insulated glass (IG) unit including a coated article including a coating supported by a glass substrate, the method comprising:\n having a coated article comprising:\n a first dielectric layer on the substrate; \n a first layer comprising Ag over at least the first dielectric layer; \n a second dielectric layer over at least the first layer comprising Ag; \n a second layer comprising Ag over at least the second dielectric layer; \n a first layer comprising Ni and Ti over and contacting the second layer comprising Ag; \n a third dielectric layer over at least the first layer comprising Ni and Ti; \n a third layer comprising Ag over at least the third dielectric layer; \n a second layer comprising Ni and Ti over and contacting the third layer comprising Ag; \n a fourth dielectric layer over at least the second layer comprising Ni and Ti; \n and making the IG unit via steps comprising: positioning a second substrate in substantially parallel spaced apart relation to said coated article so as to form a gap therebetween; coupling said coated article and the second substrate, wherein the coating of the coated article is provided on surface  2  or surface  3  of the IG unit; and wherein the IG unit has a LSG of greater than or equal to 2.15.
