To provide a carbon nanotube chain consisting of a row of carbon nanotubes, the carbon nanotube chain being suitably used for instance as a target detector or sensor, and an efficient production process for the same. The carbon nanotube chain includes a support, and a plurality of carbon nanotubes bonded at one end to a surface of the support, wherein the plurality of carbon nanotubes is oriented in a direction substantially orthogonal to the surface of the support. |
