- Co was deposited, in the average thickness of 0.1 nm, on the resultant by vacuum deposition, and Co patterns were formed by a lift-off technique with acetone.
- a chemical vapor deposition apparatus constituted by a quartz tube, an electric furnace, a rotary pump and a turbo molecular pump as shown in FIG. 1 was used.
- Heat treatment was carried out, while an oxygen gas was being flown to clean the interior of the quartz tube and a quartz boat.
- the quartz tube was vacuum evacuated down to 2 Pa (coarse sucking) by the rotary pump, and then while the oxygen gas was being flown at a flow rate of 0.5 l/min., the tube was heated up to 800° C., and thermally treated at 800° C. for 10 minutes. At that time, the pressure was adjusted by switching a valve to a needle valve so that the inner pressure of the quartz tube might be about 2.7 kPa.
- the oxygen gas was stopped, the quartz tube was cooled, while the tube was being evacuated to vacuum by the turbo molecular pump.
- the oxygen gas used was at a G1 grade (99.99995%). Cleaning can be also performed by the oxygen plasma cleaning, the ozone cleaning or the like.

Thereafter, while the interior of the quartz tube was being evacuated to vacuum using the rotary pump and the turbo molecular pump, the furnace was cooled, and then the substrate was taken outside, thereby obtaining SWCNTs. The pressure inside the quartz tube immediately before taking the sample outside was 9.3 ⁇ 10 ⁇ 5 Pa.

It was also confirmed that the ratio (G/D) between the height of a peak near 1590 cm ⁇ 1 and that of a peak near 1350 cm ⁇ 1 was 9.2 in FIG. 6 and that since a peak was observed near 164 cm ⁇ 1 in FIG. 7 , a SWCNT having a high quality was synthesized.

- a thermally oxidized silicon substrate was dipped in the molybdenum acetate solution, then thermally treated at 400° C. in air for 5 minutes, successively dipped in the cobalt acetate solution, and thereafter thermally treated at 400° C. in air for 5 minutes. Thereby, catalyst patterns in which a catalyst of Co/Mo is deposited on a surface of the substrate at a high density were obtained.
- SWCNTs were grown in the same manner as in Example 2, except that the organic synthesis ethanol was replaced by a special-grade ethanol (manufactured by Kanto Chemical Co., Ltd.) having 0.4% of water at the maximum.
- the sectional photograph of the obtained SWCNTs taken by the SEM revealed that they did not grow vertically to the substrate, but hugging the substrate as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11 , while no vertical growth was observed unlike the present invention.
- SWCNTs were grown in the same manner as in Example 2, except that the interior of the quartz tube was not cleaned. Although the SWCNTs obtained were inferior to those in Example 2, the better SWCNTs were obtained in Example 3 as compared with Comparative Examples 1 and 2.
- SWCNTs were grown in the same manner as in Example 2, except that instead of the vacuum evacuation of down to 6.6 ⁇ 10 ⁇ 4 Pa, the temperature was raised, while argon gas was filled inside the quartz tube at 0.3 SLM and a pressure of 40 kPa under controlling and that before growing, the interior of the quartz tube was vacuum evacuated to 2 Pa through its one end by the rotary pump.
- the sectional photograph of the obtained SWCNTs taken by the SEM revealed that they did grow not vertically to the substrate, but hugging the substrate as shown in FIGS. 12 and 13 . Thus, it was recognized that no vertical growth was observed unlike the present invention.
- Example 2 the interior of the quartz tube was evacuated to vacuum, and the temperature was raised to 800° C., while the pressure was kept at around 2 Pa, and then SWCNTs were grown at 2 Pa.
- a sectional photograph of the obtained SWCNTs taken by the SEM confirmed that although the SWCNTs obtained were inferior to those in Example 2, the better SWCNTs were obtained in Example 4 as compared with Comparative Examples 1 and 2.
- the SWCNTs having excellent growth efficiency and growth rate could come to be produced by employing the SWCNT producing method of the present invention. Further, the SWCNTs could come to be grown vertically to the substrate by employing the producing method of the present invention.
