Welcome to the Summer Topicals 2013

8 - 10 July 2013

Hilton Waikoloa Village, Waikoloa Hawaii, USA

Welcome! The IEEE Photonics Society is pleased to accounce the 2013 Summer Topicals! This year the Summer Topicals are composed of five meetings organized around a topic. We are especially interested in emerging new areas in which a focused meeting of interested researchers will help sustain and grow new topical areas.

Main areas of topic will include :

Micro- and Nano-Cavity Integrated Photonics
Space-Division Multiplexing for Optical Communication
Quantum Photonics & Communications
Non-Reciprocal Photonic Devices
Data Center Photonics

The Topical Meetings of the Photonics Society are the premier conference series for exciting new areas in photonic science, technology, and applications, creating the opportunity to learn about emerging fields and to interact with the research and technology leaders in an intimate environment.

A unique aspect of the Topical Meetings is that Photonic Society member volunteers propose and organize these meetings. Hence I would like to thank each of the Topical Chairs and the Program Committee Members who have volunteered and invested their time organizing these conferences. I also want to thank the plenary and invited speakers for giving us their perspectives on the exciting new developments and the challenges in these five fields. Finally I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the Photonic Society Conference Staff for their professional organization and arrangements.

See you in Hawaii!
