Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With its numerous advantages, such as a high chemical stability, wide optical transparency in the infrared range, large nonlinear optical effect, low tendency to crystallize, and low optical losses, chalcogenide glasses have been widely applied in industrial factories, chemical sensing, biomedical analysis, environmental monitoring, and telecommunications. The amorphous state and low-temperature deposition capability allow for chalcogenide glasses to be compatible with various materials systems and integrated platforms. This Special Issue aims to introduce recent advances in the use of chalcogenide glasses as chemical sensors, strain sensors, biosensors, photosensors, electric field sensors, magnetic sensors, photodetectors, temperature sensors, thermal radiation sensors, and humility sensors in different fields, as well as to collect discussions on the opportunities and challenges of chalcogenide glass-based sensors for future applications.

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.
