International Topical Meeting on Microwave Photonics. Technical Digest Including High Speed Photonics Components Workshop

摘要

This meeting is intended to bring together scientists and engineers who are interested in microwave photonics. They will present recent advances and exchange freely ideas in this multi-disciplinary research area, ranging from novel devices to systems deployed in the field. We are particularly pleased to be witnessing steady growth of this field. For example, in 1991 most of the papers were in the device area with a very small pool of contributed papers. This year there are many papers on system applications in addition to the traditional device papers, which were selected from a much larger paper pool. Although it is interesting to note that many early contributors are still active in this field, it is even more gratifying to see many newomers who are the new blood for the field.
