Apparatus, materials, and techniques and techniques herein can include providing a deposited layer comprising a composite material including carbon nanotubes (CNTs). According to various examples, the composite can be applied to a substrate such as using a solution containing CNTs and other constituents such as sulfur. The solution can be spray-applied to a substrate, or spin-coated upon a substrate, such as to provide a uniform, conductive, and optically-transparent film layer. In one application, such a film layer can be clad or otherwise assembled in a stack-up including a substrate and cover layer (e.g., glass layers), such as to provide a transparent assembly. Such an assembly can include a portion of a window, such as a windscreen for a vehicle, where the CNT material can provide a conduction medium for Joule heating.
