The alloy layer 3 is arranged between the metallic member 1 and the resin member 2 , and has average surface roughness thereof in the range from 5 nm or more to less than 1 μm at the interface between the alloy layer 3 and the resin member 2 . Herein, a period of the unevenness formed on the interface of the alloy layer 3 is in the range from 5 nm or more to less than 1 μm.
