1. A transparent electrode having at least a conductive material layer on a transparent substrate,
wherein the conductive material layer is a metal nanowire layer, the metal nanowire layer is in contact with the transparent substrate, and the metal nanowire layer is formed intermittently on the transparent substrate; and
the transparent electrode has an organic layer containing a nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocyclic compound having a structure represented by the following Formula (1) adjacent to the metal nanowire layer,

OG Complex Work Unit Chemistry
in Formula (1), A1 and A2 represent a reside that forms a 6-membered nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocycle together with a nitrogen atom, and the 6-membered nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocycle may form a fused ring, L represents a single bond or a linking group derived from an aromatic hydrocarbon ring, an aromatic heterocycle or an alkyl group.
