Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Optical spectroscopic sensing and imaging have become popular tools in environmental detection, industrial process control, agricultural monitoring, and medical diagnostics, since they facilitate comprehensive, non-invasive, and non-destructive monitoring. Recent breakthroughs in light sources have resulted in higher detection sensitivity and more compact systems, moving optical spectroscopic sensing and imaging technologies into a new stage. The past decades have witnessed a booming development in optical sensors, which benefit from novel light sources and novel sensor structures.
This Special Issue of the journal Sensors entitled "Optical Spectroscopic Sensing and Imaging" will focus on all aspects of the research and development related to these areas. Original research papers that focus on the development of optical sources for sensing, as well as the design and experimental verification of new sensors and imaging systems. Both reviews and original research articles will be published. Reviews should provide an up-to-date, well-balanced overview of the current state of the art in a particular field and include main results from other groups. We look forward to and welcome your participation in this Special Issue.

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.
