The novel gas and liquid nanoelectromechanical sensor based on carbon nanotube (CNT) is presented. By exposing an electromagnetic wave to the sensor, this work evaluates the effects of nanotubes displacement, resonance frequency, and maximum output current. The permittivity effects of a medium are investigated directly on the displacement and maximum output of the CNT and sensor, respectively. The results of this research can be used in designing innovative sensors for various applications.
