Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Flexible and stretchable electronics is one of the most promising fields for diverse scientific and industrial areas, such as electronic skin, wearables devices, and biosensing. This has led to several studies on the synthesis of flexible conductive materials as an alternative to conventional rigid silicon-based technology, thus meeting the requirements of these applications (lightness, mechanical flexibility, transparency, etc.). Efforts in this direction have resulted in several outstanding advances in many flexible electronics areas, including sensors, antennas, and energy-storage devices. This Special Issue, “Recent Advances in Wearable Flexible Electronics”, covers the fabrication and characterization of these kind of devices and their use for the development of wearable electronics systems for different applications.
Original papers, communications, and reviews covering advances in the field of flexible electronics for wearable applications are warmly welcomed to contribute to this Special Issue.
Dr. Francisco J. Romero

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.
