Estimating the term…
A translucent construction element comprising a layer of translucent substrate, which contains a surface structured with nanoplanes of inclined angle relative to the substrate plane, and coated with an interrupted metallic layer covering at least a part of said nanoplanes, is characterized by a high density of interruptions in the metallic layer of low thickness; the periodicity of interruptions in the metallic layer generally is from the range 50 to 1000 nm and the thickness of the metallic layer typically is from the range 1 to 50 nm. The construction element may be integrated, for example, into windows, plastic films or sheets or glazings, especially for the purpose of light management.

A translucent construction element comprising a layer of translucent substrate, which contains a surface structured with nanoplanes of inclined angle relative to the substrate plane, and coated with an interrupted metallic layer covering at least a part of said nanoplanes, characterized in that the thickness of the metallic layer is from the range 1 to 50 nm and the metallic layer is interrupted in one dimension with a periodicity of interruptions in the range 50 to 1000 nm and realizes a duty cycle from the range 0.25 to 0.7;
A device comprising an interrupted metallic layer on the surface of a transparent substrate, characterized in that the surface is structured with nanoplanes of inclined angle relative to the substrate plane and carrying a metal coating on at least a part of said nanoplanes, where the periodicity of interruptions in the metallic layer is from the range 50 to 1000 nm and the thickness of the metal coating is from the range 1 to 50 nm.
