Surface-type silver electrodes were deposited on the glass substrates. A thin film of VOE（3-fl） and CNT composite was coated as a temperature-sensing material on the top of the pre-patterned Ag electrodes. The temperature-sensing principle of the sensor was based on the conductivity change of the coated sensing element upon heating or cooling processes. DC and AC （100 Hz） resistances of the temperature sensor decreased quasi- linearly with increasing the temperature in the range of 25-80 ℃. The overall resistance of the sensor decreases by 1.8-2.1 and 1.9-2.0 times at DC and AC voltage, respectively. The resistance temperature coefficients of the sensor were in the range of-（0.9-1.3）% and -（1.1-1.3）% at DC and AC voltage, respectively.
