Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the rapid development of nanotechnology in recent years, the potential of emerging functionalized nanomaterials has been realized for applications in a wide range of scientific areas. One of the most thrilling fields is nanomaterials’ properties in building high-performance gas sensors. Novel nanomaterials have a large number of varieties, including metal oxides, carbon materials, metal organic frameworks, and many other types. They play crucial roles in gas-sensing materials, contributing to the popularity of low-cost, miniaturized, highly precise and selective, and fast-responsive gas sensors. The unceasing progress of nanoteconology also significantly lowers the detection limit. Multifunctional gas sensing nanomaterials are widely applied in biomedical diagnosis, industrial safety, food authentication and environment monitoring.

This Special Issue welcomes innovative research findings and a comprehensive overview of the performance of nanostructured gas sensors, with focuses on the selection of sensing materials, the fabrication of gas sensors, real-condition testing in single gas detection or mixed gas analysis, and the integration of traditional sensors and intelligent devices. The Special Issue also offers insights into the current challenges and future trends of this domain.

We look forward to your valuable contributions.

Dr. Qu Zhou
Guest Editor

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. Chemosensors is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2700 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.
