The purpose of the ASSP Advisory Committee is to assist the ASSP general and program chairs with meeting planning efforts and to advise them on how the meeting can better serve the solid-state photonics community. Previous ASSP chairs and other leaders in our field are invited by the current chairs to augment the technical program committee.
