A chemical vapour deposition process for preparing a coated glass substrate, said process comprising at least the following steps in sequence: a) providing a glass substrate having a surface, b) depositing a layer based on SiCO and/or SiNO on the surface of the glass substrate, c) exposing the layer based on SiCO and/or SiNO to a gaseous mixture (i) comprising water, and d) subsequently depositing a layer based on a TCO over the layer based on SiCO and/or SiNO.

Process for preparing a coated glass substrate

An electrical connector for a glazing comprising a connector portion for connection to an electrical supply, and a button for soldering to a surface of the glazing, the button comprising a base portion adjacent, in use, to the surface of the glazing and an upper portion remote, in use, from the surface of the glazing, wherein the button comprises at least one solder-contacting surface, at least a portion of the solder-contacting surface curving from the base portion to the upper portion and defining a tapering solder cavity. A glazing comprising the electrical connector is also disclosed as is a method of soldering the electrical connector to a glazing.
