Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The development of flexible conductive electronic as wearable and conformable sensors, displays, and powering devices is making a huge impact on our daily lives. This Special Issue covers both organic and inorganic materials, as well as hybrid composite materials and devices for flexible electronics. Papers in the areas of soft materials synthesis, characterization, and modeling, along with device fabrication and testing, are requested. Papers demonstrating novel applications, including display, large-area sensors, functional devices, RFID tags, smart medical sensors, environmental monitoring, human–machine interactivity, robotics, communication and wireless networks, and paper-based devices will be considered. Novel, large area processing methods, such as 3D printing, ink-jet processing, spray pyrolysis, solution deposition, and roll-to-roll processing, are also of interest. Accordingly, this Special Issue seeks to showcase communications, research papers, and review articles.

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.
