EOS Topical Meeting on Dynamical Optics - TOM 7

29th September 2008
Paris-Nord Villepinte, Parc d'expositions et Centre de Conventions - Paris, France

This topical meeting is part of the EOS Annual Meeting 2008 and will be held from 29 September - 02 October 2008.

Synopsis

Dynamical optics are optical devices and systems that can adapt and change. This includes adaptive and active optics, variable optical devices (including lenses) and optical tweezers. This topical meeting will cover the components of dynamical optics, such as spatial light modulators and deformable mirrors, and the techniques of producing dynamical optics and their applications across a broad spectrum of science and engineering.
