Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advances in micromachining, semiconductor technology, and advanced manufacturing have led to the development of start-of-the-art cost-effective sensors and transducers for various detection applications, including biomedical, environmental, and industrial applications.
In the continuous effort to enhance the performance of sensors and minimize the cost of development and integration, this Special Issue will focus on current state-of-the-art low-cost capacitive sensors and their design, development, characterization, and application in various fields.
We would like to invite researchers to contribute original papers as well as review articles that present the following: breakthroughs and innovative advancements in the design, development and fabrication of such sensors; the methods of integration employed to reduce the cost; methods of micromachining, batch fabrication, and advanced cost-effective technologies; methods to enhance sensor sensitivity, selectivity, biocompatibility, and packaging; recent multi-disciplinary applications; the novel and unique aspects to detect; and sensor modeling and simulations.
Dr. Arezoo Emadi

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.
