In this paper, NiO/Al/NiO transparent conductive films were prepared by magnetron sputtering at the room temperature. Effects of the NiO and Al layers thicknesses on the optical and electrical properties of the NiO/Al/NiO laminated films were analyzed. When the light wavelength falls in range 300–900 nm, with the increase of the NiO and Al layers thicknesses, the transmittance of the laminated film first increases significantly and then decreases slightly, finally tends to be stable. The laminated film obtained the best optical and electrical properties when the NiO layer is 40 nm and the Al layer is 12 nm. The maximum transmittance is 83%, the average transmittance is 77.3%, the film resistivity is [Formula: see text] and the carrier concentration is [Formula: see text]. At the same time, the transmittance of laminated film is simulated by FDTD software. But the simulation curve is different from the experimental data. Analysis results show that, with the NiO dielectric is added on both sides of the metal Al film, the light reflection characteristic of laminated film has been completely different from that of the single Al metal film because of the change of interface characteristics between Al film and NiO film, and the actual luminous transmittance greatly increases.
