micro photonics Congress 11 – 13 October 2016, Berlin Exhibition Grounds, Germany

micro photonics is a new congress and trade show where some of the major trends in the 21st century come together: Photo- nics and miniaturization. At this point the application engineer meets the scientist to discuss inter-disciplinary solutions for ﬁ elds such as health care, lighting, automotive or information technology. Micro- and Nanophotonics technologies provide new devices like sensors, actuators and interconnects for miniaturized and smart systems in Biophotonics across a wide variety of applications. The technologies combine mechanical, electronic, photonic and biologic functionalities. Device dimensions can shrink to the optical wavelength range enabling novel functionalities, designs and applications. Biophotonics is an emerging, interdisciplinary ﬁ eld of research that covers all light-based technologies interacting in the life sciences and medicine. The technological solutions Biophotonics offers are of commanding importance for the health and well-being of society. A necessary prerequisite for successful research and translation of the results in Biophotonics is a close collaboration between all relevant disciplines and between scientists, industrial partners and users.

Input about the following topics can be submitted:
