| contents | We demonstrate a new method to deposit carbon nanotubes (CNT) on optical fibers based on a syringe-loaded CNT solution axially aligned to the fiber tip. A laser generates an optical tweezer in a water-based CNT solution, depositing nanotubes over the fiber cross-section. The parameters are adjusted, resulting in two deposited CNT layers with distinct thicknesses. This setup employs smaller solution volumes than those commonly used in beckers, providing high confinement, protection, and interaction of nanotubes, laser, and fiber, offering a promising alternative for real-time monitoring, which are significant to the development of industrial fiber lasers and biomedical optoacoustic devices. |
