Hot Topics in Photonics ResearchOptics is an enabling technology that directly supports the development of breakthroughs in the fields of medicine, defense, computing, and communications. Optics influences our lives today in new ways that we could never have imagined just a few years ago. The efficient generation of light from leds and lasers opened the floodgates of technological innovations. This talk will cover some of the hottest developments in the optics and photonics research areas. Some of the latest results and topic areas will include novel laser and light sources, ultrafast laser studies, nanophotonics, and biophotonics.
