Abstract

The refractive coefficients and thickness of two-sided sol-gel coatings of different compositions deposited on float glass by the immersion method are measured. It is established that the refractive coefficient on the top surface of a sample, which contacts the protective atmosphere of the melt tank during glass working, is higher and the film thickness is smaller than those on the bottom surface. This is due to the different properties of the opposite surfaces of thermally polished glass, which is related to the different tin concentrations in the surface layers.
