CARBON NANOTUBE-CONTAINING THIN FILM, METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE THIN FILM, AND PHOTOELECTRIC CONVERSION MATERIAL, PHOTOELECTRIC TRANSDUCER, ELECTROLUMINESCENT MATERIAL AND ELECTROLUMINESCENCE DEVICE EQUIPPED WITH THE THIN FILM

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a thin film in which carbon nanotubes exist in a mutually separated state and exists in a state in which photoelectric conversion function and electroluminescence function which separated single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT) have originally can be exhibited to the fullest. PSOLUTION: The thin film is a carbon nanotube-containing thin film in which a plurality of single-wall carbon nanotubes are dispersed in a mutually separated state in a soluble polyphenylene vinylene substitution product or a copolymer of such products, or a carbon nanotube-containing thin film in which a plurality of single-wall carbon nanotubes are dispersed in a mutually separated state in a soluble polythiophene substitution product. A method for manufacturing the carbon nanotube-containing thin film is also provided which comprises centrifuging a mixed liquid containing the soluble polyphenylene vinylene substitution product or a copolymer of such products or the soluble polythiophene substitution product and carbon nanotubes, and casting the resulting supernatant liquid on a substrate to form a film.
