Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With great pleasure, we announce the Special Issue, “Feature Review Papers in Optical Sensors”, which will include high-quality review papers on optical sensor devices and optical sensing technologies. Manuscripts should encompass the current state-of-the-art and perspectives in the field, illustrating the advances provided by the authors. All reviews will be considered as long as they meet the journal's standards. We encourage researchers from various fields to contribute reviews highlighting the latest developments in their respective areas and discuss cutting-edge advancements in optical sensing.
The scope of the Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following aspects:
- Micro- and nano-optical devices and their applications;
- Integrated optical sensors and semiconductor circuit;
- Photonics and optical sensing technology;
- Optical fiber sensors and Fiber Bragg Grating sensors;
- Spectral sensing and imaging;
- Optical sensors in biomedical applications;
- Optical Remote Sensing;
- Fiber optic hydrophone, optic fiber gyro, photodetectors, optoelectronics sensors;
- Infrared/fluorescent/Photoluminescence/Terahertz sensors applied in industry, food, agriculture, and manufacturing;
- Laser and LiDAR in autonomous driving, positioning, and precision manufacturing.

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.
