Workshop: Optical Coatings for Laser Applications
Thu, 11.06.2015, NTB Buchs
Joint Workshop of NTB, RhySearch and Swissphotonics 
Abstract
Together with our industry partners , a Laser Induced Damage Threshold (LIDT) Measurement System is being developed at the PWO Institute at NTB, Buchs. The inaugural workshop is intended as an opportunity to present the LIDT system and contains presentations by highly reputed speakers in the field of optical coatings.
Presentations will be held in English. It also offers the opportunity for furthering communication and networking between industry and research groups.
Target public
The workshop is geared towards technically interested engineers and scientists working with laser optics, high-end optical thin film deposition and characterization.
