As their frequency ranges from several hundred MHz to GHz, therefore they can record remarkably diminutive frequency shifts resulting from exceptionally small mass loadings. Their miniaturized design, high thermal stability and possibility of wireless integration make these devices highly competitive. Owing to these special characteristics, they are widely accepted as smart transducers that can be combined with a variety of recognition layers based on host-guest interactions, metal oxide coatings, carbon nanotubes, graphene sheets, functional polymers and biological receptors. As a result of this, there is a broad spectrum of SAW sensors, i.e., having sensing applications ranging from small gas molecules to large bio-analytes or even whole cell structures. This review shall cover from the fundamentals to modern design developments in SAW devices with respect to interfacial receptor coatings for exemplary sensor applications. The related problems and their possible solutions shall also be covered, with a focus on emerging trends and future opportunities for making SAW as established sensing technology.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s17122716","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,11,24]],"date-time":"2017-11-24T06:39:25Z","timestamp":1511505565000},"page":"2716","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":164,"title":["Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) for Chemical Sensing Applications of Recognition Layers"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0903-7788","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Adnan","family":"Mujahid","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Analytical Chemistry, University of Vienna, W\u00e4hringer Stra\u00dfe 38, A-1090 Vienna, Austria"},{"name":"Institute of Chemistry, University of the Punjab, Quaid-i-Azam Campus, Lahore 54590, Pakistan"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3053-8541","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Franz","family":"Dickert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Analytical Chemistry, University of Vienna, W\u00e4hringer Stra\u00dfe 38, A-1090 Vienna, Austria"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,11,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"317","DOI":"10.1109\/58.827416","article-title":"A review of wireless SAW sensors","volume":"47","author":"Pohl","year":"2000","journal-title":"IEEE Trans.
