Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Flexible sensors are electronic devices which can sense various physical parameters, such as pressure/strain, temperature, gas, and so on. These devices have the characteristics of conformability, lightweight, and have a low cost, showing their application potential in the field of sensing and measurement, such as human health monitoring, robotics, wearable electronics, artificial intelligence, etc. However, flexible sensors still face the several barriers toward high-level performance and industrialization. The major challenges are reliability and the balance between electrical and mechanical properties. This Special Issue “Recent Advances in Micro/Nano Flexible Sensors” calls for full-size research papers and reviews on flexible sensors designs (include materials, structures, etc.) and their innovative application.

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. Micromachines 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 2600 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.
