ACS Sensors

期刊简介：ACS Sensors is a peer-reviewed research journal that is devoted to the dissemination of new and original knowledge on all aspects of sensor science that selectively sense chemical or biological species or processes. Articles may address conceptual advances in sensing that are applicable to many types of analytes or application papers which report on the use of an existing sensing concept in a new way or for a new analyte. Application papers should demonstrate the use of the sensor in complex samples, show it is fit-for-purpose, and exhibit a correlation of the sensor’s performance with an existing analytical method. Papers may focus on sensor development for commercialization or developing sensors that are used to provide new scientific knowledge. Articles may be entirely theoretical with regard to sensing, or they may report experimental results. The types of sensors the journal covers include: Biosensors, Chemical sensors, Gas sensors, Intracellular sensors, Single molecule sensors, Cell chips, Arrays, and Microfluidic devices. Primary research papers include Letters and Articles. Note that the maximum length of Letters is four journal pages and Articles are eight. In addition, the journal publishes Reviews, Perspectives, Sensor Issues and Introducing Our Authors. Perspectives should report the authors’ opinion on important new directions in sensing and discuss the nature of the opportunities perceived. Reviews can cover conceptual advances in sensing, review a class of sensor or analyte, or can be more of a tutorial that addresses a specific challenge in sensing and approaches to overcoming it. Sensor Issues will guide the community and new entrants to sensors on where the opportunities and challenges are by highlighting specific sensing issues. Introducing our Authors will feature two authors per issue discussing their scientific and non-scientific accomplishments. See the Author Guidelines for more information on the journal, the manuscript types, and how to estimate paper length.
