===========================================================================
The CLEO-PR & OECC/PS 2013 conference will be held during June 30th-July 4th 2013 at Kyoto International Conference Center, Kyoto, Japan. The conference brings together international leading researchers, scientists and engineers who are actively working in lasers and their applications, nanophotonics, optical devices, optical transmission and optical networking, optical fibers, optical switching system and related technologies.
The conference will combine the following three major international conferences, which widely covers in the field of "optics(photonics)" from lasers and devices to systems and networks.
The combination of these conferences will make this the most significant and valuable conference for participants from all over the world, and also will provide a forum for the discussion of significant progress of research and development of appropriate technologies.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following areas:
