Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, conventional transparent conductive films made of Al-Mg-Zn-based oxides have the problem of insufficient moisture resistance due to the presence of a large amount of MgO which is an amphoteric oxide. When used, the conductivity of the film is significantly deteriorated in a short period of time due to the presence of moisture and oxygen, and the film loses its conductivity, resulting in a significant drop in the power generation efficiency of the solar cell
In addition, when used as a transparent conductive film for liquid crystals or organic ELs, degradation can cause a decrease in brightness or malfunction of liquid crystals or organic EL elements.
