      On behalf of the program committee and the organizer, IPG Photonics, you are invited to attend the 5th International Symposium on High-Power Fiber Lasers and Th eir Applications, which will take place in St. Petersburg, Russia, from June 28th to July 1st, 2010.

      The Symposium is to be held within a framework of the XIV International Conference on Laser Optics, the largest forum in the field of laser sciences in Russia and Eastern Europe.

      The speakers presenting at the Fiber Lasers Symposium (over 50 in total) are drawn world-wide and include top experts from industry and development institutions who are leading the progress in the field of fiber lasers applications, design, manufacturing and research.

      The Symposium is a unique opportunity to mix with other top specialists and to learn about the latest breakthroughs in the field while enjoying St. Petersburg: founded by Peter the Great over 300 years ago, it is one of the most famous gems of the world´s historicaland cultural heritage.

      We look forward to hearing from you soon. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

      The Fifth Conference on Laser Optics for Young Scientists (LOYS’2010) will be organized within the frame of LO′2010. LOYS′2010 continues a series of meetings for young scientists organized in cooperation with internationally recognized conference Laser Optics. 

      LOYS′2010 provides a forum for young talented physicists (up to 35 years old) just entering the world of science or already actively working there. The topics of LOYS′2010 will coincide with those of LO′2010.

 

 

      The LOYS traditional format will include invited and key-note lectures delivered by internationally recognized scientists who will review the conference topics and describe latest results and achievements. 

      Young scientists are invited to present their works in the sessions of oral and poster presentations. These sessions will be supervised and chaired by internationally recognized scientists. A special selection commit¬tee formed of the Program Committee members will pick up best poster presentations delivered at the con¬ference and award them with special diplomas. LOYS′2010 participants will have a privilege to attend all the events of LO conference.

      The Conference continues well-known traditional symposia including LAMN (Laser-Assisted Micro- and Nanotechnologies) and LMI (Laser-Matter Interaction) conferences used to be organized in former Leningrad, USSR since the middle of the sixties of the past century.

      Laser-assisted micro- and nanotechnologies are rapidly growing areas of research, development, and production.

      The Conference is concerned with a broad spectrum of topics in laser micro- and nano-processing, from fundamental physical problems and experimental demonstration to the development and realization of industrial equipment.

 

 

 

Laser-Assisted Micro- and Nanotechnologies & Laser-Matter Interaction and several special scientific events:

 

Workshop Photophysics of Nano-scale Systems

 

Workshop Computer Simulations of Laser Technologies

 

Seminar Laser Cleaning and Artworks Conservation

 

Seminar Industrial Applications of Fiber Lasers

 

Seminar Terahertz Radiation Interaction with a Matter

 

School for young scientists and engineers
