Carbon nanotube (CNT) is one the most important nano-elements in fabrication of probes, sensors and other ultra-small devices that have a wide usage in engineering and medicine. In this paper, the deflection and instability of a freestanding CNT probe/sensor in the vicinity of the graphene layers are investigated. A nano-scale continuum model in conjunction with Euler beam theory is employed to obtain nonlinear constitutive equation of freestanding CNT by considering the effect of Casimir dispersion force. A numerical finite difference method is employed to solve the nonlinear governing equation.
