会议背景介绍：  Artificially structured materials can enable unprecedented control of electromagnetic energy, offering unique possibilities in light matter interaction. Incorporating active components, such as gain or non-linear materials advances the functionality of these photonic materials to a higher level, breaking current boundaries in light control. Structured materials with active components are most promising platforms for a wide range of applications including biological/chemical sensing, nanoscale thresholdless lasing, solid state lighting as well as chipscale optical computing. This vast potential for high impact applications has been a driving force in active photonic materials research. Current open directions include fabrication of active elements (such as quantum dots) inside structured photonic materials, dynamically tunable photonic platforms, novel THz sources, light harvesting, as well as active carbon-based photonic devices.

This conference aims to bring together scientists and engineers working in the emerging field of active photonic materials, to compare methods and results, identify novel applications, and cross-fertilize among various application fields. Topics will cover active photonic materials and devices ranging from THz to the ultraviolet regime. Contributions from industry, government, academia, and other research organizations are solicited in areas including:
theory and modeling of non-linear and/or gain photonic media
novel non-linear optical phenomena, materials, and devices
extra-ordinary light harvesting structures
advances in fabrication of photonic structures with active materials
photonic structures for quantum control and cavity QED systems
fabrication of quantum dots and nanowires for active photonics
carbon-based active photonic materials and devices
tunable and dynamic photonic platforms
novel second harmonic generation and optical rectification systems; novel THz generation prototypes
chemical sensors and biosensors based on active control of light
photonic bandgap optoelectronic devices
magneto-photonic crystals and modulators.
