Optica Advanced Photonics Congress

Bragg Gratings, Photosensitivity and Poling in Optical Materials and Waveguides (BGPP)

BGPP addresses all aspects of electromagnetic or light interactions for traditional, novel glassy or crystalline material and device processing, including additive manufacturing, laser written devices, waveguide processing and poling in optical materials, from physical fundamentals, properties and fabrication approaches to applications across industries.

As new research directions come online, the application of light-matter interactions expands, with recent demands including light-based additive manufacturing methods for fiber and waveguides. The technical program is tailored for informal exchanges, forming new partnerships and reconnecting with colleagues. Attendees come from around the world to participate in this exchange of knowledge.

 

The meeting topics are divided into three main themes:

1. Fundamentals of light-matter interactions, glassy and crystalline material processing and poling
2. Properties of light-written and poled structures and techniques used in their fabrication
3. Applications of light-written structured and poled devices
