Process for producing transparent electrode

摘要

To provide a process for producing a transparent electrode comprising a tin oxide film which can readily be patterned, which can be realized at a low cost, and which has low resistivity and is excellent in transparency. A process for producing a transparent electrode having a patterned tin oxide film formed on a substrate, which comprises a step of forming a tin oxide film having light absorption characteristics on a substrate, a patterning step of removing part of the tin oxide film having light absorption characteristics, and a step of subjecting the patterned tin oxide film having light absorption characteristics to heat treatment to obtain a tin oxide film.
