| 1. A sintered body target for transparent conductive film fabrication wherein the target is chiefly composed of Ga. In. and
O: has a Ga content ranging from 49.1 at. % to 65 at. % with respect to all metallic atoms; is chiefly constructed from GaInO3 phase of a β-Ga2O3-type structure and in In2O3 phase of a bixbyite-type structure; provides an X-ray diffraction peak intensity ratio defined by the following equation that
is 45% or less; and has a density of 5.8g/cm3 or more:
In2O3 phase (400)/β-GaInO3 phase (111) ×100[%].
