Short Courses
CLEO®/Europe-EQEC 2021 will be offering an expanded short course programme covering a wide range of exciting topics in photonics and laser technology.
Short courses participants are generally targeted individuals who wish to learn about a topic outside their main area of expertise. They are intended for engineers and scientists.
Twelve courses will be scheduled. The 2021 Short course topics include: Ultrashort Pulse Characterization, High-Power Fiber Lasers, Optical Parametric Oscillators, Laser Beam Analysis, Propagation and Spatial Shaping Techniques, Practical Quantum Optics, Mid-infrared semiconductor lasers, Terahertz Measurements and their Applications, Nonlinear Crystal optics, Frequency Combs and Applications, Silicon Photonics, Optics in Graphene and Other 2D Materials, Finite Element Modelling Methods for Photonics.
