| Welcome to the online submission and editorial system for Sensors and Actuators A: Physical. |
 |
Sensors and Actuators A: Physical brings together multidisciplinary
interests in one journal
entirely devoted to disseminating information on all aspects of research
and development of solid-state devices for transducing
physical signals. Sensors and Actuators A: Physical regularly publishes
original papers, letters to the Editors and from
time to time invited review articles within the following device areas:
• Fundamentals and Physics such as:
classification of effects, physical effects, measurement theory, modelling
of sensors, measurement standards, measurement errors,
units and constants, time and frequency measurement.
• Materials and their Processing such as: piezoelectric
materials,
polymers, metal oxides, III-V and II-VI semiconductors, thick and thin films,
optical glass fibres, amorphous, polycrystalline and
monocrystalline silicon.
• Optoelectronic sensors such as: photovoltaic diodes, photoconductors,
photodiodes,
phototransistors, positron-sensitive photodetectors, optoisolators, photodiode
arrays, charge-coupled devices, light-emitting diodes,
injection lasers and liquid-crystal displays.
• Mechanical sensors such as: metallic, thin-film and semiconductor
strain gauges, diffused silicon pressure sensors, silicon accelerometers,
solid-state displacement transducers, piezo junction
devices, piezoelectric field-effect transducers (PiFETs), tunnel-diode strain
sensors, surface acoustic wave devices, silicon
micromechanical switches, solid-state flow meters and electronic flow controllers.
• Thermal sensors such as: platinum
resistors, thermistors, diode temperature sensors, silicon transistor thermometers,
integrated temperature transducers, PTAT
circuits, thermocouples, thermopiles, pyroelectric thermometers, quartz
thermometers, power transistors and thick-film thermal print
heads.
• Magnetic sensors such as: magnetoresistors, Corbino disks,
magnetodiodes, Hall-effect devices, integrated Hall
devices, silicon depletion-layer magnetometers, magneto-injection transistors,
magnistors, lateral magnetotransistors, carrier-domain
magnetometers, MOS magnetic-field sensors, solid-state read and write heads.
• Micromechanics such as: research papers
on actuators, structures, integrated sensors-actuators, microsystems, and
other devices or subdevices ranging in size from
millimetres to sub-microns; micromechatronics; microelectromechanical systems;
microoptomechanical systems; microchemomechanical
systems; microrobots; silicon and non-silicon fabrication techniques; basic
studies of physical phenomena of interest to
micromechanics; analysis of microsystems; exploration of new topics and
materials related to micromechanics; microsystem-related
problems like power supplies and signal transmission, microsystem-related
simulation tools; other topics of interest to
micromechanics.
• Interface electronics: electronic circuits which are designed
to interface directly with the above
transducers and which are used for improving or complementing the characteristics
of these devices, such as linearization, A/D
conversion, temperature compensation, light-intensity compensation, current/frequency
conversion and microcomputer
interfacing.
• Sensor Systems and Applications such as: sensor buses,
multiple-sensor systems, sensor networks, voting
systems, telemetering, sensor arrays, and automotive, environmental, monitoring
and control, consumer, medical, alarm and security,
robotic, nautical, aeronautical and space measurement systems.
