Flexible Electronic Sensors Based on Nanomaterials

Dear Colleagues,

With the rapid development of mobile Internet and intelligent devices, flexible electronic has received tremendous attention driven by the huge demand in the market. Flexible sensors have attracted great interest because of their excellent properties, including high sensitivity, good deformability, reliable stability, and low cost. In recent years, various flexible sensors based on nanomaterials have been fabricated to detect different signal stimuli, such as pressure, deformation, humidity, light, heat, gas, and current, for applications on artificial skin, human–computer interaction, point-of-care diagnostics, and wearable electronic devices. The selection of materials is critical for the fabrication of flexible sensors. Excellent nanomaterial properties contribute to flexible sensors with high sensitivity, a wide detection range, or superior durability. Many kinds of nanomaterials, such as carbon, metal, and low-dimensional semiconductor nanomaterials, have been proposed to improve the performance of flexible sensors.

This Special Issue is dedicated to the latest progress in flexible electronic sensors based on nanomaterials. Both review and original research articles on the design, synthesis, fabrication, characterization, and applications of flexible electronic sensors are welcome.

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.
