About LIC

Tiny Integrated Laser and Laser Ignition Conference (LIC) is the international forum fordiscussions on various aspects of the ubiquitous sources and phenomena associated with highly
intense laser pulses. LIC offers to share information on sciences and technologies related to Giant
Micro-photonics.

“Tiny Integrated Laser (TILA)” and “Laser Ignition (LI)”“Tiny Integrated Laser (TILA)” means the compact integration of highly intense laser devices
and peripheral systems that enables ubiquitous operation of extraordinarily accurate
measurements and control of extreme material phases. Here, the word “laser ignition (LI)”originally means the laser induced breakdown ignition, and it also implies the induction ofphenomena caused by the irradiation of high-brightness laser pulses.
Based on the recent photonic innovation called by Giant Micro-photonics, ubiquitous lasers
symbolized by TILA that can be operated at everywhere and anytime by everybody can become thedoor to promote the world to a new generation.

Location

The conference will be held on April 18 - 22, 2022 in the frame of the OPTICS & PHOTONICSInternational Congress (OPIC2022), as a hybrid conference (On-site at Pacifico Yokohama,Yokohama, Japan and virtual on Zoom). The exhibition (OPTICS & PHOTONICS International
Exhibition, OPIE2022) will be co-located on April 20 (Wed) – 22 (Fri).
