A review of optical fibre devices employing nano-structured coatings is presented. Active and passive coatings, deposited using the Langmuir-Blodgett and electro-static self-assembly techniques, have been utilised to influence the transmission spectrum of optical fibres, with the aim of developing sensor elements and in-line components for telecommunications systems. Coupled waveguide, fibre grating and miniature Fabry-Perot cavities are described.
