1. A laminated glazing unit for architectural integration of solar energy systems, comprising:
a layered glazing structure that includes
a substrate having a substrate refractive index nsub a value of which at a wavelength of 550 nm is between 1.45 and 1.6;
a multi-layered interference filter disposed on a first surface of the substrate and containing a non-quarter-wave thin-film stack defined at said wavelength of 550 nm,
wherein thicknesses of any two high-index material layers sandwiching an immediately-adjacent low-index material layer therebetween are different from one another and wherein thicknesses of any two low-index material layers sandwiching an immediately-adjacent high-index material layer therebetween are different from one another,
wherein the high-index layers each have a refractive index from 1.8 to 2.5 and the low refractive index layers each have a refractive index from 1.25 to 2.2;
and
a laminating polymer layer disposed on the multi-layered interference filter, said laminating polymer layer having a polymer refractive index npol a value of which at the wavelength of 550 nm between 1.45 and 1.6;
wherein said layered glazing structure, when the substrate is in contact with an incident medium having a refractive index of ninc=1, is characterized by a first reflectance value for IR light at every wavelength between 1 micron and 2.5 micron is between 65% and 29% for at least angles of reflection of zero degrees, 65 degrees, 70 degrees, 75 degrees, 80 degrees, and 85 degrees.
