Our conference serves a dual purpose: to explore the latest advancements in nanomaterials, photonics, quantum optics, and quantum information, while also emphasizing inclusivity and participation from researchers and students from around the world.

The Best Student Presentation Awards will be granted to students who deliver exceptional presentations. The awards are sponsored by OPTICA through funding for the special program of the RAU OPTICA Student Chapter.
