The aim of this chapter is to present a comprehensive selection that includes the preparation, characterization, and applications of carbon nanotube-based sensors that have been developed in recent years. Carbon nanotubes have become a preferred material for sensor applications due to their unique nature, improved thermal and electrical conductivity, high surface to volume ratio, adjustable length, and high stability. Since its first use as a sensor, it has been applied to countless analytes with a wide variety of modifications and a wide variety of methods. Carbon nanotubes are indispensable elements of today’s sensor applications with many advantages such as large surface area, electron transfer ability, and adaptability. The steps that can be encountered in the period from the preparation of CNTs to their use as sensors have shown in as much detail as possible. Therefore, the topics covered are designed as follows, respectively: the purpose of dispersion, dispersion methods, advantages provided by functionalization, different types of functionalization, the importance of modification for CNT sensor applications, types of modifications (metal, metal oxides, polymers, biomolecules, macromolecules etc.), sensor applications based on the difference of modification types and grouped according to wide range application area of sensors. In brief, in this chapter, strategies for preparation of different carbon nanotube-based sensors, analytical performance of the obtained materials and future prospects are discussed.
