The present invention is directed to a method for forming a patterned conductive film, which comprises the step of bringing a substrate having a layer made of platinum microcrystal particles formed thereon in a pattern and a complex of an amine compound and an aluminum hydride into contact with each other at a temperature of 50 to 120° C.According to the present invention, there is provided a method for forming a patterned conductive layer, which can ensure electrical bonding with a substrate and also can be suitably applied to various electronic devices, simply without requiring a massive and heavy apparatus.
