PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OF CARBON NANOTUBE AGGREGATES, CARBON NANOTUBE AGGREGATES, CATALYST PARTICLE DISPERSION MEMBRANE, ELECTRON EMITTERS, AND FIELD EMISSION DISPLAYS

摘要

A method for producing a carbon nanotube assembly, the method controlling a growth density of carbon nanotubes on a substrate, includes: a step for preparing a catalyst particle dispersed film-formed substrate including a catalyst particle dispersed film in which metal catalyst particles having a predetermined particle diameter are dispersed among barrier particles; and a thermal CVD step for growing carbon nanotubes from the metal catalyst particles serving as starting points by heat decomposition of an organic compound vapor.
