Abstract: An electronic device having an electrode made of metal that reacts easily with carbon is provided. In the electronic device, the electrode on which carbon nanotubes are deposited by a chemical vapor deposition method using a reactant gas containing carbon and oxygen, is made of a metal generating less reaction enthalpy when reacting with carbon than when reacting with oxygen. Since the electrode is made of a metal which reacts with carbon faster than oxygen, a carbonized metal layer is formed on the electrode, thereby preventing the electrode from being oxidized. Accordingly, the carbon nanotubes can be easily deposited on the electrode.
