Our Laboratory of Optical fibers took part in the Prague Museum Night 2015 on Saturday 13th June between 7 p.m. and 1 .a.m. at the National Technical Library in Dejvice, Prague 6.
IPE will be attending the AMPER Trade Fair 2015, where we will show the visitors not only prototypes of components for fiber lasers but also optical fibers, fiber lasers and optical sensors. Key equipment for creating, comparing and establishing the national time scale UTC (TP) will also be showcased and much more!
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.
Our Institute of Photonics and Electronics will traditionally hold Open doors day on 6th and 7th November within the framework of the Science and Technology Week project. Visitors will be able to see the latest scientific methods and their use in practice. Both the main building in Prague 8 and the detached laboratory in Lysolaje will be open.
The SPIE award for an excellent student conference contribution at the Photonics Prague 2014 conference was awarded to Jakub Cajzl, a doctoral student from our Fiber lasers and nonlinear optics team.
