Dear Colleagues,

• The aim of the selected publications is to describe both theoretical approaches to and principles of harvesting, such as the conversion of different "residual" forms of energy into electrical energy with the required parameters and measurable transformation efficiency, as well as a number of different approaches to extracting potential and dynamic forms of local system energy.
• Areas of interest are mainly:

1. Theoretical foundations of the principles of extraction/transformation (electromagnetic field) as well as equipment for the conversion of any form of energy into electrical energy with a wider application potential, for structures of millimeter, micrometer or nanometer technology, power supply for sensing technology, supporting electronics, etc.
2. Some specific applications (in the areas of both technology and manufacturing issues, as well as tasks related to implementation) in MEMS and NEMS sensors.
3. The appropriate selection of the principles of harvesting (efficiency, performance, limiting factors of activity, multidisciplinary use, interdisciplinary solutions, special applications of material, medical, space, microscopic and other technologies) for the selected shape, application and size of the sensor.

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. 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.
