Carbon nanotube device, method of manufacturing the same, and carbon nanotube transfer body

A method of manufacturing a carbon nanotube device, characterized by comprising:

• an applying step of applying to a surface of a base body a solution containing plural carbon nanotubes having functional groups and a cross-linking agent which prompts a cross-linking reaction with the functional groups;
• a cross-linking step of mutually cross-linking the plural carbon nanotubes to construct a network structure through curing of the solution after the application to thereby form a carbon nanotube structure layer having the network structure;
• and
• a patterning step of patterning the carbon nanotube structure layer into a pattern corresponding to a desired device.
