Abstract
Abstract A heat ray screening glass according to this invention comprises a sheet glass, a first layer covered on the sheet glass and which is 55 nm to 70 nm thick and has a refractive index of 1.8 to 2.1 at a wavelength of 550 nm, a second layer covered on the first layer and consisting of a TiO 2 film which is 30 nm to 55 nm thick and has a refractive index of 2.3 to 2.5 at a wavelength of 550 nm, and a third layer covered on the second layer and which is 45 nm to 60 nm thick and has a refractive index of 1.8 to 2.1 at a wavelength of 550 nm, wherein the change in color of the light transmitted through and reflected on the sheet ray screening glass is very little, and a comparative high visible light transmittance and a low visible light reflectivity in the glass can be obtained.
