Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensing technologies have undergone remarkable advancements, establishing themselves as a cornerstone of modern precision sensing. These devices stand out due to their high sensitivity and stability in measuring key parameters such as strain, temperature, pressure, vibration, and refractive indices. Their unique advantages—including compact size, electromagnetic immunity, multiplexing capability, and chemical stability under harsh environments—make them exceptionally suitable for a wide range of innovative applications.
This Special Issue is dedicated to exploring the latest developments in FBG sensor design, fabrication, and practical implementation. We invite original research articles and reviews that address both fundamental and applied research on FBG sensing technologies, covering, but not limited to, topics such as new grating inscription techniques, enhanced sensitivity configurations, smart integration into composite materials and functional structures, innovative applications, and integration of FBG technology with other sensing techniques. Original research on FBG sensing technologies applied in biomedical sensing and healthcare are more than welcome.
We look forward to sharing your valuable insights and findings.

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 2100 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.
