Photonics in Chemical Physics

The field of photonics, broadly defined, ranges from basic physical work on lasers and ultrashort laser pulses to applications in healthcare, communications, and materials. With its increasingly diverse disciplines and subdisciplines, photonics has become a key component in modern society. The scientific program consists of cross-disciplinary researchers, including chemists, physicists, and engineers, in both theory and experimentation. These researchers will discuss this rapidly expanding field and cover topics that address the latest advances in photonics related research and debate the current needs and priorities, as well as the emerging areas.
