Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
When solids are exposed to linearly polarized laser radiation, a phenomena known as Laser Induced Periodic Surface Structures (LIPSS) occurs. Typically, they manifest as a surface relief made up of periodic or quasiperiodic lines that display a strong link to both the wavelength and the polarization of the radiation. These structures can be produced on practically every material (metals, semiconductors, and dielectrics).
LIPSS nanostructuring has demonstrated its efficiency in important applications including the creation of geometrical phase elements, gas sensing, enhanced tribological qualities towards drag reduction, cell migration control, or structural colorization. As a result, their use has the potential to enhance the functionality of numerous applications.
This Special Issue is addressed to all types of sensors and related devices in which LIPSS play a prominent part.

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.
