On a transparent substrate, by use of, for instance, vapor deposition, an Al film is formed. Subsequently, with a DC-bias applied on a surface of the Al film, a first zinc oxide thin film is formed by use of a sputtering method. On a surface of the first zinc oxide thin film, according to an atmospheric MO-CVD method, a second zinc oxide thin film is formed. When the second zinc oxide thin film deposited by use of an MO-CVD method is formed on the first zinc oxide thin film having a-axis orientation, the second zinc oxide thin film becomes to have the a-axis orientation. Since the Al thin film, owing to heat during the deposition by use of the MO-CVD method, is absorbed in the first zinc oxide thin film, the transparency is improved. As a result, a sample having a ZnO/ZnO/Al/glass structure becomes high in the transparency as a whole.
