It is an interdisciplinary journal serving professionals with an interest in the exploitation of biological materials and designs in novel sensor diagnostic, supervision (or surveillance), and electronic devices including sensors, DNA chips, electronic noses, lab-on-achip, etc. Research of physical effects, measurement, theory, modeling and simulation of sensors, is welcome. Subject Coverage The journal publishes original papers including but not limited to the following fields: Arrayed Sensors Sensor Fabrication And Packaging Flow Sensors Techniques Interferometry Based Sensors Sensor Networks Mems Pressure Sensors Sensor Signal Processing Micro Accelerometers Mems Gyroscopes Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (Sers) Microelectromechanical Systems (Mems) Sensors Multi-Sensor Data Fusion Surface Plasmon Based Sensors Nano-Photonic Based Sensors Ultrasonic Transducers Optical Fiber Based Sensors We are also interested in: 1) Short reports — 2-5 page papers where an author can either present an idea with theoretical background but has not yet completed the research needed for a complete paper or preliminary data; 2) Book reviews — Comments and critiques. Notes for Intending Authors Submitted papers should not have been previously published nor be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. Paper submission will be handled electronically through the website. All papers are refereed through a peer review process. For more details about the submissions, please access the website.
