Abstract

After there is prepared a conductive paste which contains fine copper particles having an average particle diameter of 1 to 100 nm, each of the fine copper particles being coated with an azole compound, such as benzotriazole, coarse copper particles having an average particle diameter of 0.3 to 20 μm, at least one of a polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) resin and a polyvinyl butyral (PVB) resin, a chlorine compound, and a glycol solvent, such as ethylene glycol, the total amount of the fine copper particles and the coarse copper particles being 50 to 90% by weight, and the weight ratio of the fine copper particles to the coarse copper particles being in the range of from 1:9 to 5:5, the conductive paste thus prepared is applied on a substrate by screen printing to be preliminary-fired by vacuum drying, and then, fired with light irradiation by irradiating with light having a wavelength of 200 to 800 nm at a pulse period of 500 to 2000 μs and a pulse voltage of 1600 to 3800 V to form a conductive film on the substrate.
