Call for Presentations and Posters

The OCLA Symposium is geared towards technically interested engineers and scientists working with laser optics, high-end optical thin film deposition and characterisation. Visitors, presenters and researchers get the opportunity to exchange ideas and share their work related to the field of optical coatings, laser technology and LIDT measurement.

 

The upcoming workshop is looking for submissions which offer solutions to common problems, innovative uses of technology, current research findings and more.

Guest Registrations for the OCLA Symposium start early 2025.
