Are greenhouse gases found in a layer like the ozone layer?

Greenhouse gases are not really found in a layer. Greenhouse gases are generally distributed, with the only exception of ozone itself. A greenhouse gas is any gas that is comprised of three or more atoms. Common in our atmosphere are: water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, ozone and a few more at very low levels. Greenhouse gases work by letting energetic light pass (say from the Sun), then not allowing infrared through without absorbing and scattering it.
