Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue, "New Micro/Nanostructured Gas Sensors for Measurement and Analysis Applications", focuses on the pivotal role of 2D materials in revolutionizing gas sensor technologies. Atomically thin 2D materials, such as graphene, MXenes, and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), offer exceptional properties, including high surface-area-to-volume ratios, tunable electronic structures, and abundant active sites, making them ideal for gas sensing applications. This Issue invites research on the synthesis, functionalization, and application of 2D materials in gas sensing, emphasizing advancements in sensitivity, selectivity, and response times. Contributions discussing the mechanisms of gas adsorption, charge transfer processes, and the influence of material properties on sensing performance are highly encouraged. Studies integrating 2D materials with flexible, transparent, or wearable platforms for next-generation sensor technologies are particularly relevant.

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. 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.
