Optica OIC — Optical Interference Coatings Conference 

Optica OIC — Optical Interference Coatings Conference is the premier global conference for all aspects of optical coatings. It spans fundamental research on coating design theory, materials, deposition methods, characterization technologies and applications ranging across electronic displays, optical communication, high-power and ultra-fast lasers, sensing, solar cells, low-emissivity coatings, optical instruments, space and more. The conference consists of five days of oral and poster presentations and an active exhibition that creates ongoing discussion and networking opportunities. None of the sessions are held in parallel, allowing attendees to listen to short presentations on each paper and then choose to visit the posters of greatest interest.

Each session starts with invited talks by world-leading experts and includes:

• Three problem contests that demonstrate the state-of-art capability in the design, manufacturing and measurement of optical coatings.
• Short courses that cater to the needs of beginner through advanced levels.
• A four-day technical exhibition by companies to display their latest products.
• A special evening technical presentation.

The conference provides ample opportunities for informal discussions and networking.
