Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors and humidity sensors have gained significant attention due to their applications in diverse fields, such as environmental monitoring, industrial automation, healthcare, and smart systems. These sensors offer several advantages, including high sensitivity, fast response times, and the ability to be integrated into wireless systems, making them indispensable in the development of advanced IoT and smart sensing technologies. The combination of SAW technology with novel materials has led to the creation of highly selective sensors capable of detecting a wide range of analytes, such as gases, humidity levels, and biological substances, with impressive precision.
This Special Issue seeks contributions that explore the latest advancements in SAW sensors and humidity sensors, from material innovations to fabrication techniques, signal processing, and their integration into practical applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, new sensor designs, material optimization, device characterization, and real-world deployment. Contributions focusing on sensor performance enhancement, new sensing mechanisms, novel application fields, integration with IoT technologies, and low-cost production of these sensors are especially welcome.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Chemosensors is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
