Focus Issue on Recent Advances in Chemical and Biological Sensors & Micro-Nanofabricated Sensors and Systems
The Journal of The Electrochemical Society is publishing a focus issue in connection with the Sensors Symposia (M01, M02 & M03) taking place during PRiME 2020.
This focus issue highlights recent advances in the field of chemical sensors (gas, liquid, and other types), including molecular recognition surfaces, transduction methods, and integrated micro-nano-sensor systems.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Development of new selective molecular recognition surface and materials
- Sensor and analytical systems for safety and security
- Novel methods for signal amplification and detection
- Sensor arrays for the simultaneous detection of multiple analytes
- Micro total analysis systems (-TAS)
- Physics and chemistry of sensors and sensor materials, synthesis/fabrication, and characterization of novel compositions
- Novel sensor concepts, design, modeling, and verification
- Sensor arrays, and electronic noses and tongues
- Physical, chemical, and biological/biomedical sensors and actuators, such as gas, humidity, ion, and molecular sensors, their system integration and actuating functions
- Optical sensors and fiber optic sensors
- Wireless sensors
- Emerging technologies and applications including nanosensors and sensors leveraging nanotechnology
- Harsh environment sensors
Reviews, critical reviews, and perspective papers are welcomed.
Focus issue submissions are open to all authors including authors presenting during PRiME 2020.
Accepting Submissions: November 19, 2020 | Submission Deadline: February 17, 2021
(At the time of submission, indicate that the paper is intended for the Recent Advances in Chemical and Biological Sensors & Micro-Nanofabricated Sensors and Systems focus issue.)
