We present a novel fiber optic sensor based on the assembly of a thin film of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) onto a short length of photonic crystal fiber (PCF) which is spliced between two single mode fibers (SMFs). The assembly of the thin film was achieved via a simple and effective deposition method. T...
