Abstract:
The present invention relates to various thin-film coatings, electro-optic elements and assemblies incorporating these elements. There is provided a vehicular rearview assembly including a mirror element having transflective and opaque areas. In one aspect the mirror element comprises a first substantially transparent substrate and a lower reflecting layer disposed on the substrate. The lower reflecting layer covers the transflective area. An opacifying layer is disposed outside the transflective area and adjacent to the lower reflecting layer. In addition, an upper reflecting layer extends over the opacifying layer and the transflective area of the EC-element. The upper reflecting layer and the lower reflecting layer have a common surface over at least a portion of the transflective area.
