Chemical Sensors
A section of Sensors (ISSN 1424-8220).
Section Information
The Chemical Sensors Section publishes original peer-reviewed papers covering all aspects of chemical sensors. This comprises new developments and recent improvements in the design, synthesis, and performance evaluation of materials for sensitive layers and transducers; the study of their sensing mechanisms; the evaluation, processing approaches, and applications of chemical sensors; and the driving electronics, data processing, and chemical sensor array chemometrics. This Section provides a platform for the publication of original and scientific research that is likely to have a broad impact and intends to explore feature topics through the establishment of Special Issues.
