Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanosensors and sensing probes are sensing devices of high sensitivity, selectivity, and diversity. Nanoscale systems have received much attention in recent years because of their innovative and versatile applications. Nanotechnology is an area of growing interest and opens up numerous possibilities for monitoring physical and chemical phenomena, detecting chemical/biochemicals, or measuring nanoparticles in the environment.
This Special Issue will focus on the design, synthesis, characterization, and applications of nanoscale systems. Emphasis is placed on nanostructures and macromolecules with potential use as nanosensors, either of molecules, processes, catalysis or diagnosis. We invite investigators to contribute short communications, full research articles, and reviews that are related with any aspect of nanoscale sensing devices. We look forward to receiving your manuscript.

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. Molecules 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 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.
