| 1. A coaxial cable comprising:
at least one conducting wire, the conducting wire consisting of a carbon nanotube bundle, the carbon nanotube bundle being
a carbon nanotube chain connected by van der Waals attractive forces between ends of adjacent carbon nanotubes:
at least one insulting layer, each insulating layer being respectively coated on a corresponding conducting wire;
at least one shielding layer surrounding the at least one insulting layer, each shielding layer comprising a polymer material
and a plurality of carbon nanotubes embedded in the polymer material; and
a sheath wrapping the at least one shielding layer.
