2D Material Sensors

Dear Colleagues,

2D materials are an excellent platform for sensing near a surface. Due to the ultimate thinness of these materials, practically each atom or molecule of a device can be exposed to the environment, resulting in a strong change of properties in response to small analyte concentration changes. Since the sensing material can be very thin, it is usually also nearly transparent, flexible, and easily integrated into a device geometry. This Special Issue is dedicated to sensing with 2D materials.

The application space of 2D material sensors is very wide because they can be used to detect changes in biological, chemical, as well as physical properties in the environment. The Special Issue is open to submissions that address fundamental aspects of the material–environment interaction, such as its intensity, dynamics, microscopic origin, the role of defects, and other aspects, as well as the use of 2D materials as sensors for a specific application. Heterostructures of 2D materials are also of interest for this issue. Experimental, theoretical, as well as numerical results will all be considered.

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. Condensed Matter is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1600 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.
