Ruxin LiWe are delighted to welcome you to the 13th Advanced Lasers and Photon Sources Conference (ALPS 2024).
The ALPS conference covers science and technology related to lasers and photon sources, spanning fundamental researchand industrial applications. As widely recognized, the development of exceptional light sources is pivotal for advancing newscientific discoveries and applications. At the ALPS conference, participants have a valuable opportunity to exchange ideas andinformation concerning recent technological advancements and potential new applications. This exchange has been instrumental
in maintaining the conference’s appeal over the past therteen years.
The ALPS conference is organized as part of the OPTICS & PHOTONICS International Congress (OPIC 2024), which
consists of thirteen optics-related scientific conferences. In the 13th ALPS we will have more than 210 excellent presentations tocover the recent advanced in this scientific field including 36 invited talks. The field included are novel optical materials, highaverage power lasers, high peak power lasers, novel solid-state, fiber, diode lasers, shorter wavelength light sources, terahertz
devices, novel optical devices, optical frequency combs, quantum optics, and their applications.
After the relaxation of Covid-19 restrictions, we plan to organize the meeting in a face-to-face format. We anticipate fruitfuldiscussions at the 13th ALPS meeting for all participants. You are cordially invited to join us and enjoy your time at the ALPS conference.
