The EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Applied Photonics will be hosting its third international summer school, bringing together leading academic researchers with early career researchers for the purposes of knowledge exchange and networking in the photonics community. Thie 2020 summer school will be held at the University of St Andrews on the theme of…
We face a climate crisis, with associated widespread losses of natural ecosystems and biodiversity. In 2015 in Paris, global leaders agreed on 17 sustainable development goals and 169 associated targets to be met by 2030. Satellites provide a unique ability to support sustainable development with scaled analyses. Organised by the University of Edinburgh and SPIE,…
The event for engineers, scientists, programme managers and policy makers for the latest developments in sensing, data and signal analysis, optronics, quantum science, optical technologies, and funding programmes. It crosses the divide between fundamental optical science and the application of the underpinning technologies in advanced defence and security systems. Collocated with SPIE Remote Sensing…
Offering engineers, scientists, programme managers and policy makers access to the latest developments in earth observation, next generation satellites, atmospheric propagation, and imaging analytics, this event provides comprehensive coverage of scientific topics, such as, remote sensing applications, sensors, systems, and satellite platforms. Collocated with: SPIE Security + Defence SPIE Space, Satellites, and Sustainability (S3)
This event is the UK’s meeting place for the world's greatest scientific minds. It attracts researchers and engineers whether in industry or academia who come together to examine new-to-market products, research solutions, review current applications, investigate future solutions and to share knowledge. Join your peers – at Photonex the most diverse and comprehensive exhibition and…
The “Photonics for…” webinar series will look at photonics technologies in a variety of sectors and applications. Speakers from industry and academia will highlight the latest developments and KTN will provide an overview of the landscape and funding opportunities for each area. The series is aimed at companies and researchers developing photonics technology, and at end-users…
Are you a woman working in enabling technologies such as electronics, sensors, photonics, RF and microwave or acoustics? Join our workshop and explore why we are not seeing more women in these sectors. Enabling technology is helping to change our world, but how will the sector meet the needs of a diverse population if it…

New research on “Reactive Plasmonics”, led by King’s College London and Imperial College London, is developing technologies to harness the large intrinsic thermal energy of light. Remarkably, “hot electrons” excited by light in metals achieve temperatures of many 1000°C, while the host metal remains near ambient conditions. This activates a range of opto-electronic and photo-chemical…
