Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Micro- and Nano-Electromechanical Systems (MEMS/NEMS) have allowed the development of devices and sensors for industrial and medical applications as well as consumer products. These applications include accelerometers, gyroscopes, magnetometers, mirrors, microgrippers, pressure sensors, microfluidic devices, radio frequency devices, sensors for monitoring gas, virus, and bacteria. However, more investigations are required to develop MEMS/NEMS devices for new applications such as the Internet of Medical Things, wearable devices, energy harvesters, and smart healthcare.
MDPI Applied Sciences is announcing a Special Issue on "Micro- and Nano-Electromechanical Systems”. For this Special Issue, we welcome submissions of review articles as well as original research papers related with the design, fabrication, and experimental tests of MEMS/NEMS devices for potential applications as the Internet of Medical Things, wearable devices, energy harvesters, and smart healthcare.
Dr. Agustin L. Herrera-May

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
