Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Accelerometers and magnetometers are widely applied in consumer electronics, automobiles, precision manufacturing and defense, aerospace and geophysical functions. MEMS technology can meet these applications’ requirements of Cost, Size, Weight and Power (CSWaP) and performance, although some sensors still demonstrate scientific barriers to such uses. Key challenges include, but are not limited to, the following: microfabrication processes, new materials, device design and optimization, interface circuits, signal processing and sensor fusions. In addition, the promising new mechanisms of micromachines, such as atomic, optical levitation and optomechanical technologies, are of great interest. This Special Issue calls for original research papers and reviews detailing state-of-the-art results on the present topic.

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.
