Abstract

A method of producing a carbon fiber bundle suppresses penetration of a process oil agent into the fiber surface layer and suppresses adhesion between fibers and the generation of surface voids, and also provides a carbon fiber bundle. The carbon fiber bundle is characterized by having a crystallite size of 3.0 nm or less as measured by wide-angle X-ray diffraction, containing a point where the Si/C ratio is 10 or more as calculated by SIMS (secondary ion mass spectrometry) in the region ranging from 0 to 10 nm in depth from the fiber surface, and also showing a Si/C ratio of 1.0 or less as calculated by SIMS at a depth of 10 nm from the fiber surface.
