Optica Nonlinear Optics

04 - 07 Aug 2025

Held every three years, Optica OIC — Optical Interference Coatings Conference, has served for the past four decades as the premier conference on the topic of optical interference coatings. Optica OIC — Optical Interference Coatings Conference spans fundamental research on coating design theory, materials, deposition methods, characterization technologies and applications ranging across electronic displays, optical communication, high-power and ultra-fast lasers, sensing, solar cells, low-emissivity coatings, optical instruments, space and more. The conference consists of five days of oral and poster presentations and an active exhibition that creates ongoing discussion and networking opportunities. None of the sessions are held in parallel, allowing attendees to listen to short presentations on each paper and then choose to visit the posters of greatest interest. Each session starts with invited talks by world-leading experts.
