Abstract

To provide an optically transparent film containing 0.01 to 20% by weight glass forming oxide consisting of Nb2O5, V2O5, B2O3, SiO2, and P2O6; 0.01 to 20% by weight Al2O3 or Ga2O3; and 0.01 to 5% by weight hard oxide of ZrO2 and TiO2 as required; balance being ZnO, and a sputtering target for forming such a film. This sputtering target reduces occurrence of particles during sputtering, decreases the number of interruption or discontinuance of sputtering to improve production efficiency, and forms a protective film for optical disks with large transmittance and low reflectance.
