The present invention provides a film-coated article coated by a film having
silicon oxide as a main component, in which recesses and projections conferring
super hydrophobicity or super hydrophilicity are formed. This film includes minute
projections and columnar projections, and the columnar projections are formed by
local growth of the minute projections in a thickness direction of the film or
formed with a plurality of minute particles constituting the minute projections
laminated locally.
