Abstract
Provided is a substrate for carbon nanotube growth in which no metal particles as a catalyst aggregates and a method for manufacturing the substrate. A substrate for carbon nanotube growthincludes a base plate, a catalyst, a form-defining material layerwhich allows the catalystto be dispersed and arranged, and a covering layerwhich has a metal oxide to cover the catalyst. A method for manufacturing a substrate for carbon nanotube growthincludes a step of sputtering on a base platea metal which forms a catalystand oxidizing the surface of the metal, a step of sputtering a form-defining material on the base plate, and a step of further sputtering on the form-defining material a metal which forms a catalystand oxidizing the surface of the metal.
