Abstract
Disclosed is an inductor, which employs carbon nanotubes and/or carbon nanofibers synthesized in a shape of coils, so that the inductor has a high inductance even in a minute circuit of a nano-size or a micro-size. The inductor may have a carbon nanotube and/or carbon nanofiber synthesized in a shape of a coil, in which the carbon nanotube and/or carbon nanofiber is synthesized between catalysts fixed at desired locations on
Claims8
An inductor comprising:
- a substrate;
- a plurality of catalysts located on the substrate, wherein the catalysts include transition metals, and the catalysts comprise a plurality of crystal faces;
- and
- carbon nanotubes and/or carbon nanofibers synthesized between the catalysts, wherein the carbon nanotubes and/or carbon nanofibers are grown on the crystal faces of the catalysts, the carbon nanotubes and/or carbon nanofibers being entangled with each other, thereby growing in a shape of a coil.
