3rd International Workshop on Opportunities and Challenges in Mid-infrared Laser-based Gas Sensing
Managed by Optica
05 - 07 Mar 2015
The 3rd International workshop on opportunities and challenges in mid-infrared laser-based gas sensing (mirsens3) is organized by University of Würzburg and nanoplus with the support of Wrocław University of Technology. The workshop target is to provide an overview of the state of the art in the field of laser-based detection of various gases with the absorption characteristics in the mid-infrared region. At the same time, the workshop will promote and encourage interactions between academic and industrial research institutions and will address scientific and technological challenges associated with both the latest developments and future prospects. The workshop is organized as a combination of plenary lectures given by world-renowned experts and short oral contributed presentations. Main topics: • Semiconductor structures for the mid-infrared • Electronic and optical properties of the active material • Recent progress in mid-infrared laser sources • Laser-based gas sensing and related techniques • New application prospects Preliminary list of invited speakers: Chadwick Canedy, Naval Research Laboratory, USA Francesco D’Amato, CNR, National Institute of Optics, Italy Martin Kamp, University of Würzburg, Germany Barry McManus, Aerodyne Research Inc., USA Józef Piotrowski, VIGO System, Poland Manijeh Razeghi, Northwestern University, USA Frank Tittel, Rice University, USA Eric Tournie, University of Montpellier, France Michael Santos, University of Oklahoma, USA Joachim Wagner, Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Solid State Physics, Germany Ulrike Willer, Clausthal University of Technology, Germany
