| 20110240009 | MIRROR HAVING REFLECTIVE COATINGS ON A FIRST SURFACE AND AN OPPOSITE SECOND SURFACE - A solar mirror includes an opaque reflective coating on a surface of a transparent substrate facing away from the sun and a transparent reflective coating on the opposite surface of the substrate. The transparent reflective coating increases the percent reflection of wavelengths in selected ranges, e.g. wavelengths in the infrared range to increase the total solar energy reflected by the solar mirror to increase the solar energy directed to a receiver that converts solar energy to electric and/or thermal energy. | 10-06-2011 |
