Emerging Semiconductor Technologies for Next-Generation Sensors

Dear Colleagues,

The rapid evolution of semiconductor technologies is revolutionizing the landscape of next-generation sensors by enabling unprecedented levels of sensitivity, miniaturization, and energy efficiency. Emerging materials such as two-dimensional materials, high-κ dielectrics, and organic–inorganic hybrid materials are unlocking new functionalities and device performance. Advanced fabrication techniques, including nanoscale patterning and heterogeneous integration, are further expanding the possibilities for sensor innovation across various applications in healthcare and environmental monitoring. This Special Issue aims to highlight recent breakthroughs and trends in semiconductor-based sensor technologies, fostering interdisciplinary research and collaboration in order to address the challenges and opportunities of future sensing technologies, with a particular focus on fundamental materials science, device physics, and novel fabrication methods.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. Sensors is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
