Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, in this case, although the surface resistance of the obtained transparent conductive film was definitely lowered, a little metallic luster was generated on the surface thereof
Therefore, there is a problem that the light transmittance is lowered, and the visibility of the liquid crystal display device is lowered.

Abstract

Disclosed is a process for producing a liquid crystal display device comprising at least a pair of substrates holding a liquid crystal layer therebetween and a pixel electrode superimposed on the liquid crystal layer side of the pair of substrates. The pixel electrode in at least one of the pair of substrates is formed of a transparent electroconductive film comprising zinc oxide as a fundamental constituent material. The production process comprises the step of forming a zinc oxide-type transparent electroconductive film on the substrates by sputtering using a target of a zinc oxide-type material to form the pixel electrodes. In the step of forming the pixel electrodes, sputtering is carried out in an atmosphere containing two or three materials selected from the group consisting of hydrogen gas, oxygen gas, and water vapor.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display device, and more specifically, to a method of manufacturing a transparent conductive film used as a pixel electrode of a liquid crystal display device. [0002] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2008-013680 for which it applied in Japan on January 24, 2008, and takes in the content here. Background technique [0003] For a long time, using ITO (In 2 o 3 -SnO 2 ) as a material for a transparent conductive film constituting a pixel electrode of a liquid crystal display device (LCD). However, indium (In), which is a raw material of ITO, is a rare metal, and it is expected that the cost will rise due to difficulty in obtaining it in the future. Therefore, an abundant and inexpensive ZnO-based material has attracted attention as a material of a transparent conductive film replacing ITO (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). Zn...
