About Nonlinear Optics
Nonlinear optical phenomena are being studied and applied over a wide range of energies and powers, from single-photons to petawatts, and over broad spectral regimes, from THz to X-ray frequencies. The purpose of this meeting is to provide an international forum for discussion of all aspects of nonlinear optics, including new phenomena, novel devices, advanced materials and applications. NLO 2011 will also celebrate 50 years of nonlinear optics through several devoted presentations.
Papers are being considered in the following topic categories:
Fundamental studies and new concepts
- Quantum optics, computation and communication
- Single-photon nonlinear optics
- Solitons and nonlinear propagation
- Ultrafast phenomena and techniques
- Surface, interface and nanostructure nonlinearities
- Microcavity and microstructure phenomena
- High intensity and relativistic nonlinear optics
- Slow light
- Coherent control
- Pattern formation in nonlinear optical systems
- Nonlinear nanophotonics
Nonlinear media
- Atoms, molecules and condensates
- Cold atoms
- Dielectrics
- Semiconductors
- Nanostructures
- Photonic bandgap structures
- Fibers and waveguides
- Photorefractives
Novel lasers and frequency converters
Micro solid-state photonics
Applications
