Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrochemical motion sensors use mass and charge transfer in the miniature liquid-based electrochemical cell as a readout mechanism to transduce mechanical motions to variations in the interelectrode current. Based on these operating principles, highly sensitive motion sensors have been created to be used in different fields, such as seismic sensors, accelerometers, and angular velocity sensors. New applications of electrochemical motion sensors assume the use of the sensors integrated with actuators as a part of integrated microfluidics system. Both review articles and original research papers are invited to contribute which revolve around the following, though they are not limited to these, areas:
- Studies of fundamental physical and electrochemical processes that determine conversion of signals in electrochemical motion sensors;
- New designs of the electrochemical cells and technological aspects related to the manufacturing of sensors, which are more precise and suitable for mass production;
- New engineering approaches to expand technological possibilities by combining sensors with signal conditioning, control, and power electronic circuits and built-in actuators;
- The use of new electrolytes and materials to build the electrodes;
- Application examples from various fields.

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.
