<Prior Art and Its Deficiencies> When a transparent conductive film is formed on the surface of a transparent substrate, it has a drawback that surface reflection increases due to the high refractive index of the conductive film. Hereinafter, this point will be described in detail by taking a transparent touch panel which is an optimum application field of the transparent conductive film of the present invention as an example. The transparent touch panel is a transparent input switch using a transparent conductive film as a conductor. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, two transparent conductive films each having a transparent conductive film 5 provided on a base film 1 are used. The structure is such that the permeable film 5 faces inside and the spacers 6 face each other.
When this is pushed with a finger, the transparent conductive film 5 facing each other is brought into contact with the switch, and the switch is turned on (ON) for input.
The transparent conductive film used here is of electrode grade, and is made of indium tin oxide, which is a base film with excellent mechanical strength, heat resistance and chemical resistance, such as polyester (especially polyethylene terephthalate) and polyether sulfone. (Hereinafter referred to as ITO), a semiconductor thin film such as tin antimony oxide, or a metal thin film such as gold, palladium, aluminum, or a chromium alloy is formed by a method such as vacuum deposition, sputtering, ion plating, or ion beam deposition. is there. Most of the transparent conductive films currently on the market are ITO on the polyester film surface.

It is a single-sided spectral reflectance curve of the polyester film provided with the ITO thin film (optical film thickness 72.3 nm). From the comparison of curves a and b, the reflectance of the polyester film provided with the ITO thin film is more than that of the polyester base film. Is also increasing significantly.

Further, in the above transparent touch panel, an antireflection film (optical film thickness λ / 4 or more and 3 / 4λ or less) is formed on the non-conductive surface (that is, the outer surface of the transparent touch panel) together with the multilayer antireflection film having the transparent conductive film as the outermost layer. The transparent conductive film, which may be provided, has an antireflection film on both sides, and the reflectance characteristic is further improved as compared with a transparent conductive film having only a multilayer antireflection film having a transparent conductive film as an outermost layer. In this case, the antireflection film on the non-conductive surface may be either a commonly used low-refractive index film single-layer film or a multilayer antireflection film having a low-refractive index film layer as the outermost layer. It is preferably a multilayer antireflection film capable of realizing reflection. Although the generally used antireflection film is an insulating layer, in the transparent touch panel using the transparent conductive film of the present invention, the inner conductive surface antireflection film is a multilayer antireflection film having the transparent conductive film as the outermost layer. Therefore, the conductivity is not impaired at all. Moreover, the contact resistance and operating force during switching are not different from those of the conventional type. On the other hand, by using a multilayer antireflection film,
There is an advantage that the optical characteristics and mechanical durability are improved.

1. A multilayer antireflection film having a transparent conductive film layer as an outermost layer is provided on a transparent substrate by a physical method or a chemical vapor deposition method. Is a first low refractive index film layer L 1 (optical film thickness 0 <[L 1 ] ≦ λ / 4, where λ is a central wavelength of 500 to 600 nm), the first layer of which is counted toward one side and which is made of SiO 2 . The second layer is TiO 2 and / or
High refractive index film layer H made of ZrO 2 (optical film thickness λ / 8 ≦ [H] ≦
λ / 4) and the second high-refractive index film layer in which the third layer is made of SiO 2.
L 2 (optical film thickness 0 <[L 2 ] ≦ λ / 4) and the fourth layer (outermost layer) is a transparent conductive film layer TC (optical film thickness 0 <[TC] ≦ λ / 4)
Is a transparent conductive film.
