Patent ID: 8075948

Claim:
A method for producing a transparent conductive film, which comprises: forming a transparent SiO x thin film on a surface of a transparent base film by a dry thin film forming method; and forming a transparent conductive thin film comprising an indium-tin complex oxide in direct contact with the transparent SiO x thin film, forming a hard coat treated layer in direct contact with a transparent substrate, forming a transparent adhesive layer in direct contact with said transparent substrate and with said transparent base film, wherein the transparent SiO x thin film has a thickness of from 10 to 100 nm, a refractive index of from 1.40 to 1.80 and an average surface roughness Ra of from 0.8 to 3.0 nm, wherein x is from 1.0 to 2.0, wherein the transparent conductive thin film has a thickness of from 20 to 35 nm and a ratio of SnO 2 /(In 2 O 3 +SnO 2 ) of from 3 to 15 wt %.
