Functional Nanomaterials and Flexible Sensing Devices in Wearables

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue on Functional Nanomaterials and Flexible Sensing Devices in Wearables aims to highlight recent advances and innovations in the field of wearable technology and the development of nanomaterials and flexible sensing devices for wearable applications, including but not limited to healthcare monitoring, fitness tracking, and environmental sensing.

The purpose of this Special Issue is to provide a platform for researchers, engineers, and practitioners to share their latest findings and insights on the design, fabrication, and characterization of functional nanomaterials and flexible sensing devices for wearable applications. The scope of discussion will cover topics such as the synthesis and characterization of novel nanomaterials, the integration of nanomaterials into flexible sensors, and the development of wearable devices with enhanced performance, sensitivity, and durability.

This Special Issue will be situated within the existing literature by addressing the current state of the art in wearable technology and highlighting the potential of nanomaterials and flexible sensors for further advancements in this field. It will also provide a critical review of the challenges and opportunities associated with the development of functional nanomaterials and flexible sensing devices, and offer insights into future research directions and applications. Ultimately, this Special Issue will contribute to the advancement of wearable technology by promoting interdisciplinary research and collaboration across different disciplines, including materials science, electronics, and biomedicine.
