- Comparative Example 1 A second mixed gas ( containing Ar and O 2 ) is supplied to both the first film forming chamber 41 and the second film forming chamber 42, and the pressure of the first film forming chamber 41 and the second film forming chamber 42 is reduced to 0.
- a light transmissive conductive film 10 was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the value was changed to 4 Pa.
- Comparative Example 2 The first mixed gas ( containing Kr and O 2 ) is supplied to both the first film forming chamber 41 and the second film forming chamber 42, and the pressure of the first film forming chamber 41 and the second film forming chamber 42 is reduced to 0.
- a light transmissive conductive film 10 was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the value was changed to 2 Pa.
- a cross-section observation sample of the light-transmitting conductive layer 1 of each Example and Comparative Example was prepared by the FIB microsampling method, and then the light-transmissive conductive layer in the cross-section observation sample was prepared by FE-TEM observation (cross-section observation). The thickness of 1 was measured. Details of the device and measurement conditions are as follows.
- FIB microsampling method FIB device Hitachi FB2200 Acceleration voltage: 10kV
- the thickness of the second amorphous conductive film 82 (second region 5) of Examples 1 to 4 and 6 to 7 was calculated by the following formula.
- Thickness of the second amorphous conductive film 82 Thickness of the light-transmitting conductive layer 1-Thickness of the first amorphous conductive film 81
- Example 5 Thintness of the first amorphous conductive film of Example 5 and the thickness of the second amorphous conductive film]
- a sample was collected immediately after the formation of the second amorphous conductive film 82 and not yet the first amorphous conductive film 81 was formed, and the second amorphous conductive film of the sample was collected.
- the thickness of 82 (second region 5) was determined by FE-TEM observation (cross-sectional observation).
- the thickness of the first amorphous conductive film 81 (first region 4) of Example 5 was calculated by the following formula.
- Thickness of the first amorphous conductive film 81 Thickness of the light-transmitting conductive layer 1-Thickness of the second amorphous conductive film 82
- Example 8 Thin of the third amorphous conductive film of Example 8
- the thickness of the third amorphous conductive film 83 immediately after sputtering was determined by FE-TEM observation (cross-sectional observation).
- the detection limit value is the light transmittance attached to the measurement. It may vary depending on the thickness of the conductive layer 1). Therefore, in Table 1, it is shown that the Kr content of the light transmissive conductive layer 1 is below the detection limit value in the thickness of the light transmissive conductive layer 1. It is described as "a specific detection limit value in the thickness of the conductive layer 1" (the same applies to the method of expressing the rare gas (Kr + Ar) content).
- the surface resistance (after heating) of the light-transmitting conductive layer 1 after heating in a hot air oven at 155 ° C. for 2 hours was measured in the same manner as above.
- the expected value of the specific resistance of the light-transmitting conductive layer 1 of Examples 1 to 8 was determined. Specifically, the specific resistance of the light-transmitting conductive layer 1 after heating in Comparative Example 1 (mixed with Ar) was set to 2.301 ⁇ 10 -4 ⁇ cm with the thickness of the second amorphous conductive film 82 of each example. By dividing, the expected value (AV Ar ) of the surface resistivity of the second amorphous conductive film 82 after heating (155 ° C., 2 hours) was calculated (Equation (1)).
- the light-transmitting conductive layer 1 is a layer in which argon and a rare gas having an atomic number larger than that of argon are mixed as shown in FIG. 5D of the present application
- the argon gas to be introduced and the rare gas having an atomic number larger than that of argon are mixed.
- the expected value was calculated by replacing the ratio of the amount of gas with the ratio of the first region 4 and the second region 5 of the light transmissive conductive layer 1.
- the expected value of the specific resistance is a specific resistance that can be expected in calculation, and more specifically, the specific resistance of the light-transmitting conductive layer 1 of each embodiment having the first region 4 and the second region 5 is determined.
- Gain amount (%) of specific resistance of light-transmitting conductive layer 1 [(expected value of specific resistance-measured value of specific resistance)] / (expected value of specific resistance) x 100
- the measured value of the specific resistance of the light transmissive conductive layer 1 after heating at 155 ° C. for 2 hours is lower than the expected value of the specific resistance of the light transmissive conductive layer 1. It is a percentage of the expected value of the specific resistance of the light-transmitting conductive layer 1. If the gain amount of the specific resistance of the light transmissive conductive layer 1 is positive, it means that the measured value of the specific resistance of the light transmissive conductive layer 1 is lower than the expected value, that is, due to the mixing of Ar and Kr. This means that the effect of reducing the specific resistance of the light-transmitting conductive layer 1 is exerted as a remarkable effect.
- a microtome knife was placed at an extremely acute angle with respect to the ITO film surface, and cutting was performed so that the cut surface was substantially parallel to the ITO film surface to obtain an observation sample.
- This observation sample was observed using TEM in a plan view (magnification: 50,000 times). A region of 1.5 ⁇ m ⁇ 1.5 ⁇ m was arbitrarily selected from the TEM observation photographs, and the presence or absence of crystal grains was confirmed in that region. In each of the Examples and Comparative Examples, the presence of crystal grains was confirmed on the entire surface direction in the plan view, and the region where the crystal grains were present was included as the main region (crystallinity and crystallinity). Is).
- the light-transmitting conductive layer and the light-transmitting conductive film of the present invention can be used in, for example, touch sensors, dimming elements, photoelectric conversion elements, heat ray control members, antennas, electromagnetic wave shield members, image display devices, heater members, and lighting. Used.
