18-19 June: The 2nd Japanese- Swedish Workshop on Nanophotonics and Related Technologies

Venue: Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Kista, Sweden

Few fields have experienced such a rapid growth in recent years as nanophotonics, fuelled by material  progress (plasmonics, quantum dots, low dimensional structures in general) and improved insight into light material interaction on the nanometer scale, allowing applications  in such varied fields as computer interconnects, telecom, medicine, lighting, solar energy harvesting to name a few.

This workshop, a sequel to an earlier one in 2009, features participation of prominent Japanese as well as US and Swedish researchers in the field.

Program to be announced. For information, contact Lech Wosinski at lech@kth.se
