Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Gas sensors are at the core of a wide range of applications, from environmental monitoring and industrial safety to healthcare and smart cities. This Special Issue aims to showcase the latest breakthroughs in gas sensing technologies, materials, and integration strategies. We welcome contributions that highlight novel sensing mechanisms, advanced materials (e.g., nanostructures, MOFs, and 2D materials), data-driven approaches (e.g., AI-assisted calibration or selectivity), sensor miniaturization, and system-level innovations. Both fundamental studies and applied research are encouraged, especially those addressing selectivity, stability, and real-world deployment challenges.

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.
