Abstract
A conductive film includes a metal oxide as a main component. The metal oxide contains the same components as components of a compound represented by a formula (I):(AO)BO (I)where A in the formula (I) is a metal element capable of having a valence of +1 or +2, B in the formula (I) is a transition metal element capable of having a valence of +4 or +5, O in the formula (I) is an oxygen element, and an average valence of B in the formula (I) is less than the maximum oxidation number of B. The metal oxide has a crystal structure in which diffraction peaks in an X-ray diffraction pattern of the metal oxide appear at same diffraction angles as diffraction angles at which diffraction peaks in an X-ray diffraction pattern of the compound represented by the formula (I) appear.
