QUANTUM ELECTRONICS

Welcome to OSA's Quantum Electronics division. Here you will find information on books, journals, conferences, and technical programs related to lasers, laser materials processing, nonlinear optics, and ultrafast optical phenomena. For more information scroll down to the Technical Group section.

Journals

Quantum Electronics Technical Groups:

Lasers: Techniques for generation and control of coherent radiation. laser devices, systems, and applications.

Laser Materials Processing: Laser-materials interaction in the production of unique materials, devices, and systems.

Nonlinear Optics: Physics of nonlinear optical materials, new materials, nonlinear processes, and devices using nonlinear optics.

Ultrafast Optical Phenomena: A focal point for the rapidly emerging area of ultrashort pulse generations and applications.

Note: As an OSA member you may join three OSA Technical Groups at no charge. these groups are your link to valuable information and colleagues. Receive special newsletters and attend group meetings and symposia!. Click here for OSA membership information.
