ABSTRACT:
An apparatus1A for processing carbon nanotubes (CNTs) includes: a processing chamber3for housing to-be-processed liquid2with CNT raw material5to be fragmented being suspended in a solvent4; and a pulse irradiation light source10for applying pulse light having a predetermined wavelength for fragmentation of the CNTs in the solvent4to the to-be-processed liquid2housed in the processing chamber3. This achieves a method and apparatus for processing carbon nanotubes that can fragment CNTs efficiently, and carbon nanotube dispersion liquid and carbon nanotube powder produced by the same.
