Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Sensitive materials and sensing technology are at the interface of human society and the physical world. The unique compositions and structures render these materials responsive to ambient stimuli, such as chemical, light, temperature, electric voltage or current, mechanical stress, magnetic field, etc. Additionally, sensing technology offers various methods of utilizing these materials in solving the analytical problems of medicine, environment, food, industries, and security. The newly emerging nanotechnology and multidisciplinary intersection provide new opportunities in sensitive materials and sensing technology.
The scope of this Special Issue encompasses but is not limited to:
- The design and synthesis of sensitive materials with novel sensing properties;
- The design, fabrication, and optimization of (bio)sensors with an outstanding sensing performance;
- Novel (bio)sensing concepts, mechanisms, and detection methods;
- Advances of instrumental analysis, lab-on-a-chip, nanopores, etc.

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. Materials 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 2300 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.
