    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to pillars useful in the fabrication of insulated glass units, particularly, vacuum glazing, insulated glass units. The invention also relates to insulated glass units containing said pillars. The present disclosure provides a pillar for use in a vacuum insulated glass unit wherein the pillar includes a body. The body includes a plurality of first structures, at least one first void region between the plurality of first structures; and a first land surface region located between the plurality of first structures and at least one first channel having first and second ends and a first channel opening proximate the first surface of the body. The first channel is in fluid communication with the local environment through at least one of its first and second ends, and the at least one first void region is in fluid communication with at least one of the local environment in a direction parallel to the first surface and the at least one first channel. The height of the plurality of first structures is less than the depth of the first channel.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to pillars useful in the fabrication of insulated glass units, particularly, vacuum glazing, insulated glass units. The invention also relates to insulated glass units containing said pillars. The present disclosure provides a pillar for use in a vacuum insulated glass unit wherein the pillar includes a body. The body includes a first surface and an opposed second surface, at least one sidewall, and a first peripheral edge adjoining the first surface and the at least one sidewall. In some embodiments, at least a portion of the first peripheral edge may be a chamfered peripheral edge. In other embodiments, at least a portion of the first peripheral edge is rounded peripheral edge. The largest dimension of the body parallel to the first surface is between about 10 microns and about 2000 microns. The body may include a continuous, inorganic material.
