Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Flexible photodetectors are a promising class of devices that have gained significant traction due to their ability to detect and convert light into electrical signals while maintaining flexibility. The ability to conform to various shapes and surfaces makes them ideal for integrating into wearable devices, flexible displays, biomedical sensors, and many other emerging technologies. The field of flexible photodetectors has witnessed remarkable advancements in materials, structures, and diverse applications.
This Special Issue aims to present the latest developments in this rapidly evolving field. We welcome both original research papers and review articles that showcase the significant developments in these fields.

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.
