Abstract
A coated article includes a low emissivity (low-E) coating supported by a glass substrate. The low-E coating includes at least one silver (Ag) based infrared (IR) reflecting layer(s) that is provided adjacent to and contacting at least one protective metallic or substantially metallic doped silver layer in order to improve chemical durability characteristics of the low-E coating. The silver based IR reflecting layer and adjacent protective doped silver layer are part of a low emissivity (low-E) coating, and may be sandwiched between at least transparent dielectric layers. A barrier layer including Ni and/or Cr may be provided over and directly contacting the protective doped silver layer in order to further improve durability of the low-E coating.
