This EOS Topical Meeting is part of the third EOS Annual Meeting 2010 that will be held in Paris, France, from 26 - 29 October 2010 alongside the PRI-OPTO exhibition (26 - 28 October).
Previous meetings took place in 2008 and 2006 with more than 650 attendees. Be a part of EOSAM 2010 and take this excellent opportunity to exchange new ideas and latest research results!

The submission deadline is extended to Thursday, 17 June.

Synopsis

Organic semiconductors are a broad class of materials comprising small molecules, conjugated polymers and carbon based nanostructures (e.g. carbon nanotubes), which can play a role in photonics. They all have in common p-electron delocalization, in low dimensional space, which yields a number of interesting properties for photonics such as large optical cross-sections and short response time, large nonlinear optical responses, energy and charge transport together with mechanical qualities (film formation, deposition, high damage threshold, low cost technology). In addition the interaction of organic with inorganic semiconductors leads to new and promising functions which appear in hybrid systems and devices.

TOM 5 Organic Photonics aims at providing a state-of-art review on organic and hybrid photonics, incl. its fundamentals, potentiality and applications. The program format allows for open discussion among participants and fruitful exchange of experience.

Topics

• Polymer lasers
• Photonic components (carbon nanotubes, photonics, amplifiers, etc.)
• OLED and OLET
• Optical properties and spectroscopy
• Organic-based photovoltaics and photodetectors
• Organic micro-cavities
• Hybrid organic/inorganic systems
