Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Due to the huge impact of the COVID-19 epidemic, people are paying tremendous attention to health and biomedicine. Optoelectronic technologies are playing an important role in monitoring, detection and diagnosis of COVID-19, convalescence, and healthcare for the aging population, for which is critical to have advanced optoelectronic sensors with high performance. Innovative optoelectronic sensors for health care, medicine, and wellbeing have thus attracted a great deal of attention in many fields, such as materials and optoelectronic sensors, biomedical engineering, biomedical optics, instrumentation, intelligence hardware, optoelectronics, computer science, medical robots, hospital managements, and healthy building. Innovative optoelectronic sensors, sensing technologies, and sensing system, which are compatible or implantable for convalescence instruments or medical robots, are facing increasing demand for dysfunctional and aging people, patients, healthcare workers, and medical staff. From simple biophotoic sensors in healthcare to intelligent medical robots, fast and timely probing of health dangers such as virus and bacterial, accurate detection, and early warning of health or disease conditions for people, interacting with different living scenarios and environments, represent demanding requirements.
The aim of this Special Issue is to collect up-to-date advances on optoelectronic sensors and sensing systems for healthcare, clinics, biological safety, healthy building, and environment. High-quality research articles, short communications, as well as reviews, are welcome. Of special interest are research works that seek to address recent developments in small-size, wearable, high-sensitivity, and fast optoelectronic sensors or sensing systems targeting biomedicine, their fusion into COVID-19, monitoring, diagnosis, medical robots, brain–computer interfaces, sensing technology and algorithms, sensing mathematics and calibration, reliability testing, novel strategies in handling issues in on-human applications, state-of-the-art applications, innovative data analysis technologies on sensed data in the biomedicine framework, as well as relevant prospects in terms of opportunities and challenges.
Submissions are welcomed in, but not limited to, the following and/or related topics:
- New materials of optoelectronic sensors;
- Novel technologies changing materials to advanced optoelectronic sensors;
- Novel sesning technologies for the COVID-19 epidemic, health, and clinics;
- Printed, flexible, biodegradable, and biocompatible optoelectronics;

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.
