Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Micro- and nanofiber sensors have been extensively investigated and used for scientific and industrial applications. For sensing photonics, interferometric sensors feature high accuracy, high resolution, high bandwidth, high signal capacity, and in situ and real-time monitoring. In addition, miniaturization and integration are also important issues for intelligent systems. The purpose of this Special Issue (SP) is to explore new discoveries to expand the possibilities for the use of micro- and nanofiber interferometers in a variety of sensing applications. The applications and development of materials, technologies, and methods have promoted the manufacture of micro- and nanofiber interferometers to expand the use in the fields of sensing photonics, which is the main motivation of this SP. Original manuscripts of unpublished work that have not yet been accepted by any other journals are solicited. The topics will cover functional materials, fabrication methods, device design, modeling, simulation, experiments, optimization, emerging sensor technologies, and applications related to the micro–nanofiber interferometers used in sensing photonics.
The list of topics includes:
- New functional materials for micro- and nanofiber interferometers;
- New fabrication methods;
- New device structures;
- Measurements;
- Modeling;
- Fiber interferometric sensors;
- Multiparameter sensing;
- Emerging sensor technologies;
- Integrated intelligent sensor systems.

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. Photonics 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 2400 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
