World of Photonics Congress 2009

The WORLD OF PHOTONICS CONGRESS is the leading international congress for optical technologies in Europe. It is held in conjunction with LASER World of PHOTONICS 2009, the international trade fair for optical technologies including components, systems and applications, so there is an intense exchange between the scientific and industrial sectors. Themes are selected and discussed based on their scientific relevance and the industrial impact.

The WORLD OF PHOTONICS CONGRESS is a unique event that covers all topics of photonics. Topics range from the latest research and development including basic research, medical application, as well as lasers in manufacturing, sensors and industrial image processing to discussions about physical processes in new light source.

The World of Photonics Congress groups together a large number of general and topical meetings covering all topics relevant to the development of modern laser and photonic science and technology. For 2009, a series of special joint sessions are being especially coordinated in order to highlight topics at the interface of the thematic areas covered by the participating conferences, with the topics covered including emerging areas in biophotonics, fundamentals and modeling of materials processing with lasers, Fiber Lasers and Amplifiers and metrology of optical components. Joint sessions are especially marked in the calls and programs.

The World of Photonics Congress is sponsored by the German Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).
