Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The rapid evolution of flexible and wearable electronics is enabling the development of lightweight, stretchable, and highly functional devices for diverse applications, including health monitoring, human–machine interfaces, smart textiles, and next-generation IoT systems. These advancements are driven by interdisciplinary innovations in functional materials, novel device architectures, scalable fabrication methods, circuit design, and system integration, ensuring enhanced performance, durability, and energy efficiency.

This Special Issue, "Advances in Flexible and Wearable Electronics: Devices and Systems", aims to showcase recent breakthroughs in this field. We invite original research and review articles covering flexible electronic materials, stretchable sensors, printed and hybrid electronics, low-power circuits, wireless communication, and advanced fabrication techniques. Additionally, contributions on energy harvesting, self-powered systems, encapsulation methods, and biomedical applications are highly encouraged.

By bringing together cutting-edge research from academia and industry, this Special Issue seeks to accelerate the development of next-generation flexible and wearable electronic technologies and facilitate their integration into real-world applications. We look forward to your valuable contributions.

Dr. Eun Gyo Jeong
Guest Editor

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.
