Aims & Scope

Aims: The Solid-State Sensors Journal (SSSJ) is a gold open access, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the research, development, and application of solid-state sensors across a broad range of disciplines, including nuclear physics, medical physics, biophysics, astrophysics, astroparticle physics, space sciences, and industry. The journal also covers innovations in sensor readout electronics, data acquisition (DAQ), and data processing, including the integration of artificial intelligence (AI). SSSJ aims to support the development of sensor technologies that are scientifically robust, technologically innovative, and industrially applicable.

SSSJ is committed to advancing the global dissemination of cutting-edge scientific knowledge and technological developments in sensor research. It serves as a platform for researchers, engineers, industry professionals, and academics to share high-quality, peer-reviewed work. The journal publishes a variety of article types, including original research, comprehensive and systematic reviews, mini-reviews, commentaries, and letters to the editor, with a focus on novel sensor designs, new materials, and associated readout technologies. SSSJ especially welcomes contributions related to firmware and software innovations for sensor data processing. The journal is published quarterly online by Scilight Press.

Scope: SSSJ welcomes submissions that present innovative sensor technologies designed to measure and detect a wide range of physical, chemical, and biological phenomena. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

Detection of nuclear particles (e.g., electrons, protons, ions, X-rays, gamma rays)
Radiation dosimetry
Thermal and temperature sensing
Optical sensing (visible, infrared, ultraviolet)
Humidity and environmental monitoring (e.g., temperature and RH)
Acoustic and pressure sensing
Acceleration and motion detection
Gas detection and analysis
Biochemical and biosensing technologies
Electromagnetic sensing (e.g., radiowavesand waves)
