Abstract

To provide a composite excellent in mechanical strength or in electric conductivity and obtained by combining a carbon nanotube structure and ceramics, and a method of manufacturing the same. The composite is composed of the carbon nanotube structure and the ceramics, and, in the carbon nanotube carbon nanotube structure, functional groups bonded to multiple carbon nanotubes are chemically bonded to mutually cross-link to construct a network structure.
