No enrollment limit, no advance sign up
Single session event

In recent years, photonic crystals have caused a revolution in the field of nano-photonics: they enable unprecedented control and manipulation of light at scales smaller than the wavelength of light.
In addition to novel and fascinating physics, their properties also enable implementation of miniature optical logic elements that operate at frequencies much larger than electronic logic, with very important applications for next-generation telecomm, personal computing, etc.
