Abstract
The disclosure relates to a method for making a carbon nanotube structure, comprising the following steps of: providing a carbon nanotube array formed on a surface of a substrate; drawing a first carbon nanotube film from the carbon nanotube array, wherein the first carbon nanotube film comprises a first end connected to the carbon nanotube array and a second end opposite to the first end; providing an elastic rod and fixing the second end of the first carbon nanotube film to a first portion of the elastic rod, wherein the elastic rod is curved away from the carbon nanotube array; and rotating the elastic rod around a rotational axis which coincides with a center axis of the elastic rod, wherein the elastic rod is curved away from the carbon nanotube array during rotation the elastic rod.
