For scientists

This year's symposium and exhibition Optics + Optoelectronics International Society for Optics and Photonics SPIE was the largest in its 10 years of existence, it attracted more than 700 participants from around the world. The extent of the introduced technologies and the number of personalities provided the participants with a superior experience and helped interactions even across fields. This meeting which took place from 13 - 16 April, 2015 was was one of the most important events in optics and photonics in the Czech Republic in the International Year of Light 2015.
UFE and the COST MP 1204 action organized two international conferences, which were a part of the celebrations of the International Year of Light 2015. The conferences took place at UFE from April 8 - April 11, 2015.
The year 2015 has been declared as the International Year of Light and light-based technologies at the 68th General Assembly of the UN. We will remember 12 eminent scientists of the 20th century, who had an indelible impact on the history of photonics and influenced, directly or indirectly, the activity of our institute within the 12 months of the International year of Light.
The IERS (International Earth Rotation and Reference System Service) organization announced the planned adjustment of the Coordinated Universal Time UTC by the insertion of a leap second to the last minute on 30 June 2015.
Jiří Homola was awarded the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports award for outstanding research, experimental development and innovation for the year 2014
The participants (mainly from European countries) introduced new research results in ultra weak photon emission from biological samples.
When two merge into one, it always brings more options. This can also be applied in the field of modern technology. What happens when we combine a laser and an optical fiber? We get a fiber laser - a source of a very intense and quality radiation beam, which has many applications.
Europhysics News published an extract from our article called "Graphite/CdMnTe Schottky diodes and their electrical characteristic" in the Highlights from European Journals part of the magazine.
The two-day event was held in the conference room at Hotel DAP in Prague. The Technical Meeting of COST Action TD1001 (OFSeSa) was in the form of lectures on fiber sensors. A meeting of the Steering Committee of TD1001 took place at the end of the first day.
Jiří Homola, director of the Institute of Photonics and Electronics of the AS CR, v. v. i., has been appointed professor of physics - quantum optics and optoelectronics - on the proposal of the Scientific Council of the Charles University in Prague, with the effect from 1 March, 2014.
