Electro-conductive oxides and electrodes using the same

摘要

Electro-conductive oxides showing excellent electro-conductivity, electrodes using the electro-conductive oxide and methods for manufacturing the same are described. The electro-conductive oxides are represented by the general formula: M(1)xM(2)yInzO(x+3y/2+3z/2)-d. The above electro-conductive oxides show not only excellent electro-conductivity but also excellent transparency all over the visible region and therefore they are particularly useful as, for example, electrodes for liquid crystal displays, EL displays and solar cells, which require light transmission.
