An object of the invention is to provide a carbon nanotube electrode which is suited to quantity production and advantageous in cost, and a process for producing the same. When carbon nanotubes on respective catalyst particles 12 on an endless belt 3 gradually fall down to a horizontal position while moving around a driven drum 2 after traveling from a CVD zone to a transfer zone with the movement of the belt, the carbon nanotubes 11 have their outer ends pressed against a conductive film 8. The conductive film 8 is sent out from a film feeder 9 downward and heated by a heater 10 to a temperature not lower than the softening temperature of the film to below the melting temperature thereof. The carbon nanotubes 11 are transferred from the catalyst particles 12 to the conductive film 8 substantially perpendicular to the film surface by being pressed against the conductive film 8 in this way. <IMAGE> |
