Optical coatings for energy efficiency and solar applications. Proceedings of the Seminar, Los Angeles, CA, January 28, 29, 1982

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6897980
Topics discussed include transparent heat mirror films, reflective materials research, selective absorber coatings, and absorber and general solar optical coatings. Papers are presented on materials for transparent heat mirror coatings, on high-quality transparent heat reflectors of reactively evaporated indium tin oxide, on solar reflectors made from silver metallo-organic resinates, and on a catalytically deposited carbon solar selective absorber. Attention is also given to the optical properties of transparent heat mirrors based on thin films of TiN, ZrN, and HfN, to the agglomeration of thin metal films used in solar conversion devices, to the spectrally selective properties of reactively sputtered Ni-C and NiN(x) films, and to the optical selectivity of oxidized stainless steel.
