    Abstract: Methods for protecting transparent electronically conductive layers on glass substrates are described herein. Methods include depositing a sacrificial coating during deposition of the transparent electronically conductive layer, before packing the glass substrate for storage or shipping, after unpacking glass substrates from a stack of glass substrates, and/or after a washing operation prior to fabricating an electrochromic stack on the transparent electronically conductive layer. Methods also include removing the sacrificial coating during a washing operation, during tempering, or prior to depositing an electrochromic stack by, e.g., heating the sacrificial coating or exposing the sacrificial coating to an inert plasma.

    Abstract: Various embodiments herein relate to electrochromic windows that are bird friendly, as well as methods and apparatus for forming such windows. Bird friendly windows include one or more elements that make the window visible to birds so that the birds recognize that they cannot fly through the window. An electrochromic window includes one or more transparent substrates, wherein at least one of the substrates is an electrochromic (EC) lite including an electrochromic device and a pattern formed on at least one of the substrates by a laser, the pattern including a first feature configured to provide a set of optical properties different than optical properties of the transparent substrate. The set of optical properties includes one or more characteristics of refractivity, reflectivity and diffraction.
