Happy New Year !!
I invite you to find new technologies and exciting ideas in photonics and lasers for our future at OPIC 2018, held in Yokohama on 23rd-27th April 2018.
As you know, optics and photonics technologies are progressing rapidly, and direct personal exchange among the leading researchers will stimulate brand new concepts.
We look forward to meeting you during the beautiful cherry blossom season next spring in Japan.
