Laser Ceramic Symposium1st International Laser Ceramic Symposium |
The scope of the First Laser Ceramic Symposium includes methods of the fabrication and properties of ceramics prepared from nanopowders. Currently, the ceramics fabricated from nanopowders are extensively investigated and proposed to be used in the field of optoelectronics and modern quantum electronics as novel lasing and scintillating materials. Particularly, ceramics prepared from rare-earth and transition ions doped oxides are the most promising materials for high power laser devices. The aim of this Symposium is to present and discuss the recent advances in development and research on nanocrystalline ceramics characterized by high optical quality. The topics will include both fabrication of sinterable nanopowders and ceramics, and their laser, optical and other physical properties. Also other emerging applications of such ceramics will be covered by the Symposium, like scintillators, LEDs etc.
The Workshop will take place on 5th and 6th September.
