The conference "Non-linear optics: light becomes magic "presented by Jean-Louis-COUTAZ, Emeritus Lecturer and Researcher at the Centre de Radiofréquences, Optique et Micro-nanoélectronique des Alpes (CROMA), UFR Sciences et Montagne, will take place Thursday June 6, 2024 at 6:30pm at the Turbine Sciences in Annecy (entrance via Cinéma la Turbine).
It will also be held :
- Tuesday, December 12, 2023 at 6:30 p.m. in Archamps
- Tuesday, June 11, 2024 at 6 p.m. in Chambéry
ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
The field of non-linear optics covers all phenomena that occur when matter is illuminated with a very powerful beam of light. For example, light changes color as it passes through a perfectly transparent crystal.
Without lapsing into mathematical formalism, many formidable applications will be presented: the shortest controlled events (attosecond pulses) that humans are capable of producing, very high-speed fiber optic telecoms, medical imaging, ultimate microscopy, thermonuclear fusion, the creation of matter from light... but also, more prosaically, certain laser pointers that everyone can use every day.
