The metal thin film layer is made of a corrosion resistant metal such as chromium. The metal thin film layer has a thickness of at least 150 .ANG. and no greater than 800 .ANG. by means of a vacuum vapor deposition or sputtering. The metal thin film layer is constituted by a plurality of metal particles. The metal particles are disposed such that adjacent metal particles are in contact with one another to form a grain boundary therebetween.
