Radio wave transmitting decorative member

摘要

There is provided a radio wave transmitting decorative member which has radio wave transmitting properties as well as mirror-surface like metallic luster, the radio wave transmitting decorative member which hardly loses its metallic luster and which can be produced at a low cost. More specifically, disclosed is a radio wave transmitting decorative member including a substrate, and a light reflecting layer provided on top of the substrate and formed of an alloy composed of either silicon or germanium and a metal, wherein the light reflecting layer is preferably a deposition film formed by a physical vapor deposition of an alloy composed of either silicon or germanium and a metal.
