Jiří Homola, director of the Institute of Photonics and Electronics of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, spoke in an interview for Týden magazine in the second part of the series Czech Science Close: Photonics and Electronics.
In 2019, the Institute of Photonics and Electronics of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic commemorates 40 years since the launch of research into optical fiber technology in the Czech Republic.
IPE will lecture at Optical Fiber Technology Workshop which take place at the SPIE Optics+Optoelectronics conference held on April 1 - 4, 2019 in Prague. Excursions to the optical fiber laboratories will be offered, too.
The Fiber Lasers and Non-linear Optics research team has successfully installed a new device for measuring the refractive index profile of optical fibers.
Student Josef Kučera, who joined the Open Science Project this year with his internship at the IPE, succeeded in the student scientific conference and gained 2nd place in the I. science field.
