Abstract
Printing is conducted at the transparent conducting film unnecessary portion on a substrate 1 with a masking ink having a higher thermal decomposition temperature than that of the transparent conducting film forming composition, and the ink is dried and cured by heat or light to form a masking pattern 2. The portion where a transparent conducting film is to be formed is preferably subjected to ozone cleaning and then coated with a transparent conducting film forming composition comprising an indium compound and/or a tin compound and a solvent to form a transparent conducting film forming composition layer 3. The thus worked substrate is subjected to a heat treatment, causing thermal decomposition of the masking pattern 2 after formation of a transparent conducting film. Then the residues of the masking ink and the transparent conducting film are removed to finally obtain a desired patterned transparent conducting film 4.
