Novel Optical Fiber Sensors

This special issue belongs to the section “Nanosensors“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

As a broad category of sensors, optical fiber sensors have experienced sufficient development due to their compact structure and advantageous performance. It has been reported that optical fiber sensors can be applied in the sensing of parameters of many kinds, with new attempts being made in, e.g., film coating, arc discharge processing, femtosecond laser micro machining, and additive manufacturing based on laser-induced two photon polymerization, to extend the applications and improve the performance of the devices. This Special Issue aims to introduce the frontier progress in the development of novel optical fiber sensors.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
