Soda-lime silicate (SLS) glass was strengthened by ion exchange for application of thin and lightweight bulletproof windows. The optimal conditions for ion exchanged SLS glass (thickness of 3 and 10 mm) at $480^{\circ}C$ were 10 and 17 min, respectively. The Vickers hardness values of the strengthened SLS glass samples with thicknesses of 3 and 10 mm were $5.9{\pm}0.22$ and $6.7{\pm}0.17GPa$, respectively, which values were about 22% higher than those of parent SLS glass. By laminating a multilayer defense film and polycarbonate sheet with ion exchanged SLS glass, we were able to make a thin and lightweight bulletproof window (24.25 mm, 4.57 kg, $50.06kg/m^2$, $V_{50}$ 901.8 m/s). As a result, the thickness of the bulletproof window was decreased by about 39% from 40 to 24.25 mm. The light transmittance in the visible range satisfied the standard (over 76%) for bulletproof windows.

Ga-doped ZnO-$SnO_2$ (ZSGO) films were deposited by rf magnetron sputtering and their structural and electrical properties were investigated. In order to fabricate the target for sputtering, the mixture of ZnO, $SnO_2$ (1:1 weight ratio) and $Ga_2O_3$ (3.0 wt%) powder was calcined at $800^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. The substrate temperature was varied from room temperature to $300^{\circ}C$. The crystallographic properties and the surface morphologies of the films were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The optical transmittances of the films were measured and the optical energy band gaps were obtained from the absorption coefficients. The resistivity variation with substrate temperature was measured. Auger electron spectroscopy was employed to find the atomic ratio of Zn, Sn, Ga and O in the film deposited at room temperature. ZSGO films exhibited the optical transmittance in the visible region of more than 80% and resistivity higher than $10\;{\Omega}cm$.

Ga doped ZnO (GZO)/Cu bi-layer films were deposited with RF and DC magnetron sputtering on glass substrate and then the effect of post deposition annealing temperature on the structural, optical and electrical properties of the films was investigated. The post deposition annealing process was conducted for 30 minutes in gas pressure of $1{\times}10^{-3}$ Torr and the annealing temperatures were 150 and $300^{\circ}C$. With increasing annealing temperature, GZO/Cu films showed an increment in the prefer orientation of ZnO (002) diffraction peak in the XRD pattern and the optical transmittance in a visible wave region was also increased, while the electrical sheet resistance was decreased. The GZO/Cu films annealed at $300^{\circ}C$ showed the highest optical transmittance of 70% and also showed the lowest electrical resistance of $85\;{\Omega}/{\Box}$ in this study.

In this paper, we designed the transparent circuit analog radar absorbing structure using printed metal grid mesh for enhanced optical transmittance. To obtain wideband electromagnetic absorption and enhanced optical transparency at X-band, we proposed the resistive FSS(Frequency Selective Surface) using printed metal mesh pattern on transparent glass with PEC(Perfect Electric Conductor) plane using ITO(Indium Thin Oxide) coating. We then fabricated the proposed structure to verify the simulation results obtained from commercial EM simulator. The comparisons between the simulation and measured results show good agreements. The results also show that the proposed radar absorbing structure can provide wideband reflection as well as better optical transparency. We can apply this proposed structure to the canopy of stealth aircraft and other stealth and security applications for visible transparency.

In order to prevent heat loss that occurs through the glass, low-emissivity (Low-E) coating methods with good insulating properties and high transmittance were used. InGaZnO/Ag/InGaZnO (IGZO/Ag/IGZO) multilayer thin films have been deposited on XG glass substrate by RF magnetron sputtering. Depending on the different thickness of Ag in multilayer films, the structural and optical properties of Low-E multilayer films were analyzed. By XRD analysis results, the multilayer thin films were observed to be amorphous structure regardless of Ag thickness. According to the AFM results, surface morphology of the multilayer films was observed and compared. Using UV-VIS spectroscopy, low emissivity property has been observed clearly with the transmittance of higher than 85% at visible range and lower than 30% at IR range.

A method for designing antireflection (AR) and antistatic (AS) coating layer by the use of conducting polymer as an electrically conductive transparent layer is proposed. The conducting AR coating is composed of four-layer with alternating high and low refractive index layer: silicon dioxide (n=1.44) and titanium dioxide (n=2.02) prepared at low temperature by sol-gel method are used as the low and high refractive index layer, respectively. The poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) which has the surface resistivity of 10$^4$Ω/$\square$ is used as a conductive layer. Optical constant of each ARAS coating layers such as refractive index and optical thickness were measured by 7he spectroscopic ellipsometer and from the measured optical constants the spectral properties such as reflectance and transmittance were simulated in the risible region. The reflectance of ARAS films on glass substrate was below 1 %R and the transmittance was higher than 95 % in the visible wavelength (400-700 nm). The measured AR spectral properties was very similar to its simulated results.

ZnO is an n-type semiconductor with a wide band gap near 3.37 eV. It was known that ZnO films with a resistivity of the order of $10^{-4}\;{\Omega}cm$ is not easy to obtain. 1, 3, and 5wt% Si element were added into ZnO in ordre to improve the electrical and optical characteristics. The Si-doped ZnO (SZO) was grown on a glass substrate by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering at the temperature range from 100 to $500^{\circ}C$. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of SZO film showed preferable crystal orientation of (002) plane. It was confirmed that the lowest resistivity of the SZO films was $2.44{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}cm$ and SZO films were significantly influenced by the working temperature. The average transmittance of the films was over 80% in the visible ranges.

$SnO_2$ single layer films (100 nm thick) and 2 nm thick Ni intermediated $SnO_2$ films were deposited on glass substrate by RF and DC magnetron sputtering without intentional substrate heating and then the influence of the Ni interlayer on the electrical and optical properties of the films were investigated. As deposited $SnO_2$ single layer films show the optical transmittance of 82.6% in the visible wavelength region and a resistivity of $6.6{ \times}10^{-3}{\Omega}cm$, while $SnO_2/Ni/SnO_2$ trilayer films show a lower resistivity of $2.7{ \times}10^{-3}{\Omega}cm$ and an optical transmittance of 76.3% in this study. Based on the figure of merit, it can be concluded that the intermediate Ni thin film effectively enhances the opto-electrical performance of $SnO_2$ films for use as transparent conducting oxides in flexible display applications.

A 100 nm thick $SnO_2$ thin films were prepared by radio frequency magnetron sputtering on glass substrates and then annealed in nitrogen atmosphere for 30 minutes at 100, 200, and $300^{\circ}C$, respectively. While the visible light transmittance and electrical resistivity of as deposited $SnO_2$ films were 81.8% and $1.5{\times}10^{-2}{\Omega}cm$, respectively, the films annealed at $200^{\circ}C$ show the increased optical transmittance of 82.8% and the electrical resistivity also decreased as low as $4.3{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}cm$. From the observed results, it is concluded that post-deposition annealing in nitrogen atmosphere at $200^{\circ}C$ is an attractive condition to optimize the optical and electrical properties of $SnO_2$ thin films for the various display device applications.

Al doped Zinc Oxide(ZnO:Al) films, which is widely used as a transparent conductor in optoelectronic devices such as solar cell, liquid crystal display, plasma display panel, thermal heater, and other sensors were Prepared by using the capacitively coupled RF magnetron sputtering method. In this paper the effect of RF discharge power on the electrical, optical and structural properties were investigated experimentally. The results show that the structural and electrical properties of the film are highly affected by the variation of RF discharge power. The optimum growth conditions were obtained for films doped with 2 wt% of $Al_2O_3$ and 200 W in RF discharge power, which exhibit a resistivity of $10.4{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}-cm$ associated with a transmittance of 89.66 % for 1000nm in films thickness in the wavelength range of the visible spectrum.
