Hear from world-class speakers on research challenges and breakthroughs
Hear from the leading speakers highlighting their areas of research
Optics + Photonics plenary sessions feature presentations from a wide range of leaders in the field, focusing on developing research and visions of the future of optical science technologies.
Join us for two exciting nanophotonics plenary talks. Shanhui Fan will discuss nanophotonics for energy applications, followed by Stefanie Kroker, who will give an overview of nanophotonic devices for applications in precision optical experiments.
Join us for plenary talks on x-ray applications, including the clinical translation of FLASH Radiotherapy and recent advances in x-ray, gamma-ray, and charged-particle imaging.
Join us for outstanding plenaries in organic photonics, spanning organic photothermal films, solution-processed OSCs, organic bio interfaces for inducing light sensitivity in cells, and the potential of strong light-matter coupling.
Hear Tayyab Suratwala explain how large optic technology advancements enabled fusion at the NIF. Then learn about NASA's Habitable Worlds Observatory from Julie Crooke, and from Laura Coyle who will discuss the HWO's ultra-stable optical system.
Join John MacKenty for a discussion on the scientific and technological influences of the Hubble Space Telescope mission on astronomical research evolution and the implications for future missions.
