Abstract
Production method for metal oxide fine particles includes: a step of mixing a fatty acid represented by CHO(n=5 to 14) and a metal source consisting of a metal, metal oxide, or metal hydroxide of at least two metal elements selected from the group consisting of Zn, In, Sn, and Sb to obtain a mixture; a step of heating the mixture at a temperature that is equal to or higher than a melting temperature of the fatty acid and lower than a decomposition temperature of the fatty acid to obtain a metal soap which is a precursor of metal oxide fine particles; and a step of heating the precursor at a temperature that is equal to or higher than a melting temperature of the precursor and lower than a decomposition temperature of the precursor to obtain metal oxide fine particles having an average particle diameter of 80 nm or less.
