This new congress combines the significant research from the topical meetings formerly known as Advanced Solid State Photonics (ASSP), Advances in Optical Materials (AIOM), and Fiber Laser Applications (FILAS). This exciting new program covers the latest advances in solid state materials based lasers, to nonlinear optical devices and associate technologies and applications. Attend sessions and network with colleagues to learn: What are the new or improved materials on the horizon and what is needed in the future? What are the performance requirements for new laser sources? What new technologies and applications are needed to meet evolving needs in the market place? This is the only international event presenting materials, sources, and applications all in one meeting in a single track format.
