Abstract
Details of the ionic self-assembled monolayer (ISAM) method for the build up of coatings on optical fibers are presented. With ISAM, it is possible to control the thickness of the coating on the nanometer scale. The interferometric nature of the nanocavities formed by the ISAM technique at the end of cleaved standard optical fibers was experimentally analyzed.
