A transparent electrically conductive film having a surface resistivity of 10?2-1010 Φ/<¿, an overall light transmittance of at least 70%, and a haze value of at most 20% comprises an organic or inorganic transparent matrix having dispersed therein 0.01 % - 1 wt.% of hollow carbon microfibers and 1 % - 40 wt.% of an electrically conductive metal oxide powder (such as antimony-doped tin oxide) with an average primary particle diameter of 0.5 νm or smaller. The matrix can be an organic polymer which is thermoplastic, thermosetting, or curable by ultraviolet radiation, or a metal oxide sol which can form an inorganic glass film, a hydrolyzable or heat decomposable organic metal compound, or the like. |
