“…They observed that an increase in measurement temperature and gas concentration resulted in fast response time and higher sensitivity. Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) sensors coated by CNTs were fabricated by Penza et al 118 for chemical detection of volatile organic compounds (such as ethanol, ethyl acetate, and toluene in nitrogen). CNT-coated SAW sensors were found to be highly sensitive during experiments.…”

Sensors continue to make significant impact in everyday life. There has been a strong demand for producing highly selective, sensitive, responsive, and cost effective sensors. As a result, research emphasis is on developing new sensing materials and technologies. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have many distinct properties that may be exploited to develop next generation of sensors. This manuscript reviews the distinct physical, electronic, and mechanical properties of CNTs. The main thrust of this review is to highlight the present and future research and development work in the area of carbon nanotube sensors for real-world applications. The technical challenges associated with CNT-based sensors, which remain to be fully addressed, have also been outlined at the end of the manuscript. This review aims to act as a reference source for researchers to help them in developing new applications of CNT-based sensors.

“…This feature might offer an opportunity for the development of gas phase sensors using CNTs. On this line of argument, various configurations employing CNTs as chemo-sensitive overlay have been impressively studied to fabricate innovative gas and vapor phase chemical sensors (Someya et al2003, Penza et al 2004, Santhanam et al, 2005. In particular, the peculiarity of SWCNTs to change their optical properties due to the adsorption of environmental pollutant molecules was for the first time demonstrated in 2004.…”

“…By depositing SWNTs onto SiO 2 film coated, ST-X quartz substrate as surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors, VOCs could be detected [101,102]. In subsequent studies, SWNTbased QCM, SAW, and silica optical fiber sensors were compared in the detection of VOCs [103][104][105].…”
