Abstract
We have used the electrostatic self-assembly process to grow nanostructured thin films, molecular layer-by-molecular layer, on the ends of silica optical fibers. Such thin films effectively form optical cavities that allow the measurement of temperature by low reflectivity optical fizeau interferometry.
