EOS topical meeting on Terahertz Science and Technology (TST 2018)
T
he European Optical Society proudly welcomes optics and photonics
professionals to its sixth topical meeting on Terahertz Science and Technology (TST 2018) in Berlin, Germany. The topical meeting is expected to gather around 100 participants from Europe and all over the world to Radisson BLU Hotel, located in the heart of Berlin, from 6 to 8 May 2018. The chairs of the conference
are Professor Heinz-Wilhelm Hübers from the German Aerospace Centre and Dr Jozsef Fülöp from the University of Pecs, Hungary. The event provides a platform for the presentation and discussion of the latest results in the generation, detection and use of terahertz radiation in science and technology.
This meeting includes the
following topics: l Emission of terahertz radiation (QCLs, HEMTs, FELs, synchrotrons, nonlinear optics etc.);
l Detection of terahertz
On behalf of everyone here at EOS, we wish you a prosperous New Year 2018 and hope to see you at our upcoming events

radiation (quantum dots, single photon detectors, time- gated, transistors etc.);
l Terahertz integrated optics, waveguiding, plasmonics, metamaterials, photonic crystals;
l Interaction of terahertz radiation with matter (dielectrics, semiconductors, nanostructured materials, graphene, liquid-state dynamics, chemistry, biology, ultrafast spectroscopy etc.);
l Nonlinear phenomena induced by terahertz radiation;
l THz far-field and near-field imaging, terahertz microscopy and microspectroscopy;
l Remote sensing of gases and chemical/biological agents;
l Terahertz applications (security, telecom, remote detection etc.).
Submission opens on 8 January 2018. Visit the event website:

UNESCO proclaims 16 May as International Day of Light
Light now occupies a very special place as one of the permanent and annual UNESCO International Day Celebrations, with UNESCO proclaiming 16 May as the International Day of Light. This annual recognition will
raise awareness of the central role that light and light-based technologies play in the lives of the citizens of the world in areas of science, technology, culture, education, and sustainable development. Partners worldwide are
now making plans for an ambitious series of outreach and education activities to take place in May 2018, with a special focus on students, young people and the public at large. In addition, a flagship inauguration
featuring Nobel Laureates and leaders in areas of education, industry, design and lighting will take place on 16 May 2018 at UNESCO headquarters in Paris, France.
