摘要:
A high transmission and low iron glass is provided for use in a solar cell. The glass substrate may be patterned on at least one surface thereof. Antimony (Sb) is used in the glass to improve stability of the solar performance of the glass upon exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation and/or sunlight. The combination of low iron content, antimony, and/or the patterning of the glass substrate results in a substrate with high visible transmission and excellent light refracting characteristics.

摘要:
A high transmittance fairly clear/neutral colored glass composition is provided. An oxidizing agent(s) such as cerium oxide (e.g., CeO2) or the like is added to the glass batch in order to realize very oxidized conditions (i.e., to significantly lower the redox of the resulting glass). As a result of the oxidizing agent(s) used in the batch, the iron is oxidized to a very low FeO (ferrous state) content. For example, this may result in a glass having a glass redox value of no greater than 0.12 (more preferably

摘要:
Glass is provided so as to have high visible transmission and/or fairly clear or neutral color. In certain example embodiments of making glass according to examples of the invention, the glass batch may include a base glass (e.g., soda lime silica base glass) and, in addition, by weight percentage: total iron (expressed as Fe2O3): 0.01 to 0.30% erbium oxide (e.g., Er2O3): 0.01 to 0.30% cerium oxide (e.g., CeO2):0.005 to 0.30%. Optionally, neodymium oxide (e.g., Nd2O3) may also be provided in the glass in certain example embodiments. In other embodiments, the cerium oxide may be replaced with or supplemented by NaNO3 or some other nitrate(s) as an oxidizer.
