Abstract
A method for manufacturing a carbon nano tube by a CVD method includes: supplying a carbon atom to a catalyzer for forming the carbon nano tube; and controlling an amount of carbon supply with time. In this method, super saturation of the carbon atom in the catalyzer is controlled appropriately. Thus, a caulking layer is prevented from being formed on the catalyzer, and therefore, the carbon nano tube having a sufficient length is obtained.
