The present invention relates to an Ag alloy film. Particularly, it is
preferably used as a reflective film or semi-transmissive reflective film
for an optical information recording medium having high thermal
conductivity/high reflectance/high durability in the field of optical
information recording media, an electromagnetic-shielding film excellent
in Ag aggregation resistance, and an optical reflective film on the back
of a reflection type liquid crystal display device, or the like. The Ag
alloy film of the present invention comprises an Ag base alloy containing
Bi and/or Sb in a total amount of 0.005 to 10% (in terms of at %).
Further, the present invention relates to a sputtering target used for
the deposition of such an Ag alloy film.
