A transparent conductive film comprises a transparent substrate and a metal wiring portion formed thereon. A thin metal wire contained in an electrode portion in the metal wiring portion has a surface shape satisfying the condition of Ra2/Sm>0.01 μm and has a metal volume content of 35% or more. Ra represents an arithmetic average roughness in micrometers and is equal to or smaller than the thickness of a metal wiring located in a position where the surface roughness is measured. Sm represents an average distance between convex portions and is 0.01 μm or more.

Abstract:
A plurality of regular triangles T having one side length L0 are tightly disposed (A). An apex A of each of the regular triangles T is moved using a random number in a movement tolerance R range to create a new apex B, and the new apexes B are connected to form a plurality of triangles having a random shape (B, C, D). A circumcenter E of each of the triangles is obtained (E). Arbitrary points F at distances, which are less than ½ of radii of circumscribed circles of the triangles, from the circumcenters E are connected to form second cells C2 of a second mesh pattern M2 (F, G, H, I). At least portions of triangles adjacent each other among the triangles are merged to form polygons, and first cells C1 of a first mesh pattern M1 including the triangles and the polygons are formed (J).
