2nd EOS Conference on Manufacturing of Optical Components (EOSMOC 2011)
- Klaus-Friedrich Beckstette - Carl Zeiss AG / Germany
- Paul Comley - Cranfield University / United Kingdom
The second EOS Conference on Manufacturing of Optical Components 2011 (EOSMOC 2011) will highlight significant future market trends, emerging technologies and associated prospective developments. It is held under the umbrella of the WORLD OF PHOTONICS CONGRESS 2011 (22 - 26 May 2011).
Synopsis
The continuing growth of the optics sector is closely bound to advancements and innovative manufacturing developments. The importance of sophisticated but economically priced optical components has never before had such a wide reaching impact on new products and processes and applications. In order to produce many of these ‘next generation’ optical components, new and innovative fabrication processes and test methods are crucial.
The second EOS Conference on Manufacturing of Optical Components 2011 (EOSMOC 2011) will highlight significant future market trends, emerging technologies and associated prospective developments. This meeting provides a forum to discuss all aspects of optics fabrication and testing ranging from micro-optics to large optics, and from high-value one-of-a-kind optics to mass-produced optics.
The conference will bring together commercial developments and ongoing research. It will be a unique opportunity for exchanging information with renowned researchers, scientists, engineers and professionals from all over Europe!
Manufacturing of Optical Components 2011 is held under the umbrella of the WORLD OF PHOTONICS CONGRESS 2011, Munich (DE), the leading international congress for optical technologies in Europe. [www.world-of-photonics.net]
Overview of EOSMOC 2009
- more than 45 speakers
- more than 70 contributions
- more than 100 attendees
- view final program www.myeos.org/Munich2009_MOC
This first conference in 2009 showed the need for a Europe-based conference on Optics Manufacturing especially in the industrial context of the LASER World of PHOTONICS 2011 and the scientific context of the WORLD of PHOTONICS CONGRESS.
