2026 Invited speakers:
Mikhail Belkin, Technical University of Munich, Munich, D Mikhail Belkin is Professor of Semiconductor Technology at TUM. His research interests are focused on developing optoelectronic and integrated photonics solutions in the mid-infrared and terahertz spectral regions. His work is towards the realization of compact solid-state systems based on widely-tunable electrically-pumped semiconductor light sources, fiber-optics, and integrated photonics platforms, and related applications.
Philippe Bouyer, University of Amsterdam, Eindhoven University of Technology, Quantum Delta NL, and Institut d'Optique, F Philippe Bouyer is a CNRS research director on secondment as a professor at the University of Amsterdam and the Eindhoven University of Technology. After completing his PhD at the Kastler-Brossel laboratory in Paris, he moved to Stanford University and then to the Institut d'Optique d'Aquitaine where, among other things, he carried out the first experiments on matter-wave quantum sensors and quantum simulators. Founder of the Photonique, Numérique et Nanosciences laboratory and of the Muquans start-up (2011) in Bordeaux, he is now in charge of science and technology for the national Quantum Delta NL initiative. He is the recipient of the 2012 Scientific Grand Award of the Louis D. Foundation (now the Charles Defforey Foundation) of the Institut de France, APS Fellow and a senior member of the OSA.
Chloe Dedic, University of Virginia, Charlottesville (VA), USA Chloe Dedic is Associate Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at UVA. Her interests are the development and application of advanced laser-based diagnostics and nonlinear spectroscopy techniques. Applications include nonequilibrium flows, supersonic combustion, atmospheric entry, detonations, and renewable energy.
Scott Diddams, University of Colorado, Boulder (CO), USA Scott Diddams is Professor of Electrical, Computer & Energy Engineering at the University of Colorado. His research relates to the development of laser and parametric optical frequency combs and their application to optical atomic clocks, tests of fundamental physics, trace gas sensing, astronomical spectroscopy, and ultralow noise frequency synthesis.
Jérôme Faist, Institut für Quantenelektronik, ETH Zurich, CH Jéròme Faist is full Professor at ETH Zürich. Since the beginning of his career, his interest is in the development of solid state lasers. After dealing with VCSELs, he joined Prof. Capasso's group, where he contributed to the realization of the first quantum cascade laser. His current research interests are the development of high performance quantum cascade lasers in the mid and far-infrared.
Martina Havenith-Newen, Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Bochum, D Martina Havenith-Newen is Professor at RUB. Her research interest is in terahertz spectroscopy and high-resolution infrared spectroscopy. In particular, she investigates ultrafast events in these frequency regions to understand molecular dynamics and biological processes.

James H. Crawford, NASA Langley Research Center, Hampton VA, USA The Critical Role of Lasers in Advancing Observations of Atmospheric Chemistry Jim Crawford is a senior research scientist at NASA and adjunct faculty member at Georgia Tech. He a specialist of airborne field studies conducted across the globe by NASA’s Tropospheric Chemistry Program and collaborating partners. His interests include the photochemistry of tropospheric ozone and free radicals, the global budget of reactive nitrogen, the influence of clouds on trace gas transport and chemistry, and the use of satellites to study long-range pollution transport and air quality. . Kerry Vahala, Caltech, Pasadena CA, USA High-Q integrated photonics Kerry Vahala is Professor of Applied Physics at Caltech and holds the Jenkins Chair in Information Science and Technology. His research on chip-based high-Q optical resonators and related nonlinear optical devices has advanced miniature frequency and time systems, microwave sources, parametric oscillators, astrocombs and gyroscopes. A member of the National Academy of Engineering and Fellow of the IEEE and Optica, he received the IEEE Sarnoff Medal for research on quantum-well laser dynamics, the Alexander von Humboldt award and MPQ Distinguished Scholar Award for work on ultra-high-Q optical microcavities, a NASA achievement award for application of microcombs to exoplanet detection, and the Optica Paul F. Forman Team Engineering Excellence Award for a 2-photon optical clock.
