Synopsis

Optical fiber technology has achieved major advances in the last few decades and has revolutionized key application fields, including those of communications, sensing, and lighting.
The aim of this topical meeting is to feature recent advances and new trends in the field of novel optical fibers, their devices, and applications. New developments on optical fibers from fundamental physics to application devices will be welcome. Both theoretical and experimental studies are eligible.

Topics

  • Design, simulation, modeling and post processing of optical fiber
  • Optical and physical characterizations of optical fibers
  • New fibers and materials (including hollow core fiber, chalcogenide, tellurite, tapered optical fibers...)
  • Optomechanical and light / sound interactions
  • Fiber lasers and light emitting fibers
  • Integrated photonics
  • Optical fiber components (filters, metalenses, polarizers, modulators, etc.)
  • Fiber amplifiers
  • Fiber switching, memory, and signal processing
  • Fiber nonlinearities
  • Optical Fiber in Telecommunications and Quantum Communication
