    摘要: Glass is provided so as to have high visible transmission and/or fairly clear or neutral color. In certain example embodiments, the clear glass includes a low amount of iron coupled with zinc oxide and/or erbium oxide in amounts designed to provide a neutral color. While the erbium oxide is used to provide for neutral color, the zinc oxide binds sulfur into whitish-colored zinc sulfide thereby reducing the amount of sulfur that binds/bonds with iron in the glass to form sulfides of iron which is/are brownish in color. Thus, the use of the zinc oxide helps make the glass more neutral in color. In certain example embodiments, the use of the erbium oxide brings the a* color value of the resulting glass closer to zero, whereas the use of the zinc oxide brings the b* value of the resulting glass closer to zero.

    摘要: Glass is provided so as to have high visible transmission and/or fairly clear or neutral color. In certain example embodiments, the glass includes a low amount of iron coupled with erbium (Er, including an oxide thereof) designed to provide a neutral color and high transmittance. In certain example embodiments, the amount of SO3 in the glass composition is increased in order to provide increased visible transmission, without sacrificing neutral color. The glass may optionally include a small amount of cobalt (Co, including an oxide thereof) in certain example instances.

    摘要: Certain example embodiments of this invention relate to a high transmission low iron glass, which is highly oxidized and made using the float process, for use in photovoltaic devices such as solar cells or the like. In certain example embodiments, the glass composition used for the glass is made via the float process using an extremely high and positive batch redox in order to reduce % FeO to a low level and permit the glass to consistently realize a combination of high visible transmission (Lta or Tvis), high infrared (IR) transmission, and high total solar (TS) transmission. The glass substrate may be patterned or not patterned in different example embodiments of this invention.

    摘要: A soda-lime-silica based glass composition for manufacturing on a float line that has a faster refining rate due to the introduction of alkali earth oxides such as BaO, ZnO and/or SrO in the amount of from about 1-4% in total. These oxides replace part or all of the MgO in the base glass composition thereby decreasing the overall MgO content in the glass composition to about 2% or less. The glass can realize a lower viscosity at high temperatures so that refining of the melt may occur faster.

    摘要: This invention relates to grey glass that is capable of achieving high light transmittance in the visible range in combination with good solar properties (e.g., reduced IR, UV and/or TS transmission), and/or a method of making the same. In certain example embodiments, the glass is treated with UV (ultraviolet) radiation in order to increase % FeO and/or CeO2 content, thereby increasing the glass redox and improving solar performance of the glass. Such glass compositions are useful, for example and without limitation, in automotive windows (e.g., windshields, sidelites, backlites and sunroofs) and/or in architectural/residential window applications.

    摘要: A high transmission low iron glass, that is highly oxidized, is provided for use in solar cells or the like. In certain example embodiments, the glass composition used for the glass is a low-iron type glass composition which is highly oxidized thereby permitting the glass to realize a combination of high visible transmission (Lta or Tvis), high ultraviolet (UV) and/or infrared (IR) transmission, and high total solar (TS) transmission. These features may be achieved without the need for antimony in certain example instances. The glass substrate used in a solar cell may be patterned in certain example embodiments of this invention.
