1. An ultraconductor comprising:
a base substrate;
a carbon nanotube layer on the base substrate, the carbon nanotube layer comprising a plurality of carbon nanotubes; and
an insulating layer on the carbon nanotube layer,
wherein the plurality of carbon nanotubes comprise 50% to 100% of metallic carbon nanotubes, and the plurality of carbon nanotubes are substantially all aligned along a longitudinal axis of the base substrate.
