Frontiers in Optics 2009/Laser Science XXV

Featuring leaders of optics and photonics, including two Nobel Laureates, FiO/LS 2009 drew together industry luminaries from around the globe. Sessions on 3-D display, supercomputing and imaging at the nanoscale were the talk of the conference, and advances in these areas generated buzz throughout the event. Green energy was also a central theme, with discussions of how to make integrated photonic circuits more environmentally friendly and the popular solar car races demonstrating solar-powered miniature cars for a captive audience. Attended by more than 1,500 of the field’s leaders and with more than 40 companies participating in the exhibition, and more than 1,000 presentations, FiO 2009 provided the latest technical advances, networking opportunities and so much more.

We look forward to seeing you next year at FiO 2010 in Rochester, NY from October 24–28.
