Special Issue Information
Dear Colleague,
Gas sensors have become an essential device technology in our modern era for various applications, such as environmental monitoring, smart homes, and industrial and medical purposes. In this respect, we are delighted to announce that our upcoming Special Issue will focus on the latest developments in fundamental and applied research related to two common types of gas sensors: electrochemical and semiconductor gas sensors.
Electrochemical gas sensors work by relying on a chemical reaction between the target gas and an electrolyte to generate an electrical signal, while semiconductor gas sensors utilize a semiconductor material, such as metal oxide, to detect changes in electrical conductivity when exposed to specific gases.
We invite both original research papers and review articles that showcase significant developments in these fields. We hope that this Special Issue will provide a comprehensive overview of the current state and future prospects regarding the aforementioned topics.
If you want to learn more information or need any advice, you can contact the Special Issue Editor Anika Deng via [email protected] directly.

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.
