Abstract :
We present a novel solution where an optical fiber is coated by a SWNT layer, and the interaction of the in-core transmitted light with the SWNT coating is provided by a tilted fiber Bragg grating (TFBG). These gratings enhance the coupling of light from core mode to cladding modes resonances, and they have found many uses in sensing applications.
