Exciting topics at LASER World of PHOTONICS 2017: Biophotonics and Medical Applications (Hall B2) Photonics in the Operating room - Status and Prospects Monday, 26 June, 2017, 11:40 – 14:00 Further information will follow. Laser Applications and Optical Diagnostics in Ophthalmology Monday, 26 June 2017, 14:40 – 17:00 Chairmen: URL: www.photonics-congress.com/congress/congress-profile/conferences/applicationpanels/index.html © Messe München GmbH 1/9 Dr. Ralf Brinkmann, Universität zu Lübeck und Medizinisches Laserzentrum Lübeck GmbH Prof. Dr. Manfred Dick, Carl Zeiss Meditec AG Abstract: This panel presents ophthalmic innovations in optical imaging and diagnostics as well as laser based therapies. On the diagnostic side, Fluorescence Lifetime Ophthalmoscopy (FLIO) is investigated as a possible new ophthalmic imaging modality to visualize metabolic states at the retina. Due to higher data acquisition speeds Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) now enables volumetric 4-D live imaging and OCT-based angiography. On the therapeutic side femtosecond laser application will be addressed, such as the revolutionary flapless refractive surgery and cataract surgery. Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) is applied to reduce intraocular pressure. Smart automatic feedback guided laser therapies at the retina will also be enlightened. Visions for Future Diagnostics – Imaging Tuesday, 27 June, 2017, 10:00 – 12:20 Chairmen: Prof. Dr. Jürgen Popp, Institut für Phys.

The aim of the workshop is therefore to show how barriers between biomedical users on one side and technology and methods developers on the other side can be overcome in the field of medical imaging. Accordingly, the workshop starts at yet urgent and unmet medical needs. These will be picked up in the course of the workshop and converted into defined "request chains" starting at system level and going down towards subsystems and finally photonic components like lasers, detectors, and filters etc. Laser evolution drives innovation in Life Sciences and Bioinstrumentation Wednesday, 28 June, 2017, 14:40 – 17:00 Chairmen: Dr. Matthias Schulze, Coherent Inc. Sönke-Nils Baumann, Omicron-Laserage GmbH URL: www.photonics-congress.com/congress/congress-profile/conferences/applicationpanels/index.html © Messe München GmbH 2/9 Abstract: The continuous development of laser sources, such as miniaturization, improved modulation properties, increasing beam quality and optical output power, contributes to innovation just like the combination with advanced components, i.e. modern camera chips. Flexible laser sources allow the combination of different imaging procedures within one single device, such as classical confocal microscopy with timeresolved or super resolution microscopy.

While initially viewed as expensive and less reliable, ultrashort pulsed lasers have become an indispensable tools for large scale industrial applications as their cost and reliability are now at par with most other solid state lasers. This more recent development demonstrates how ultra-short pulsed lasers have moved from niche applications toward addressing commercially significant opportunities and demand in the double- or triple-digits for a single application have become more common. This forum will focus on select success stories that demonstrate the growing market share of USP lasers and the economics behind these applications. Lasers in Microelectronics: The Smart Connected World Approaching Tuesday, 27 June, 2017, 14:40 – 17:00 Chairmen: Rainer Pätzel, Coherent LaserSystems GmbH & Co. KG Dietmar Kracht, Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V. Rajesh Patel, Spectra-Physics Abstract: Today the race for the Internet of Things (IoT) demands electronic devices to be smart and connected. A world without the myriad miniature electronic systems that put the “smart” into our homes such as smart-televisions, smartphones and other multi-functional devices is hard to imagine. Manufacturing these devices cost effectively is a huge challenge for the industry and laser processing can play an important role by enabling many tasks from the high precision structuring, drilling, cutting, marking and metallization of a multitude of materials to large area processing of thin films. This workshop will provide insight into latest laser applications that have shown to be the driver for rapid innovation in the manufacturing technology. 3D-Printing: Laser based Additive Manufacturing for metal parts Wednesday, 28 June, 2017, 10:00 – 12:20 Chairmen: Dr.-Ing. Damien Buchbinder, TRUMPF Laser- und Systemtechnik GmbH Dr.-Ing. Wilhelm Meiners, Fraunhofer Institute for Lasertechnology ILT URL: www.photonics-congress.com/congress/congress-profile/conferences/applicationpanels/index.html © Messe München GmbH 7/9 Abstract: The additive manufacturing processes most commonly used for metallic components are Selective Laser Melting (SLM) for producing new parts and Laser Metal Deposition (LMD) for repairing and modifying existing components. Since they manufacture without tools and offer a great freedom of geometry, these additive processes enable functionally optimized components to be produced, e.g. in automobile, tools as well in aviation and turbine construction. In addition, the industry expects, above all, a significant increase in resource and energy efficiency during the entire life cycle of a product thanks to the use of functionally optimized components as well as to flexible repair strategies. For this reason, these processes are increasingly making their way into industrial manufacturing chains. In this panel, practical examples from industrial applications will be presented in addition to a process overview. Smart Laser Solutions for Smart Mobility Wednesday, 28 June, 2017, 14:40 – 17:00 Chairmen: Marc Kirchhoff, TRUMPF Laser- und Systemtechnik GmbH Dr. Alexander Olowinsky, Fraunhofer Institute for Lasertechnology ILT Abstract: The proceeding limitation of CO2-Emissions by government as well as expected shortage of oil re-sources worldwide associated with increasing cost for fuel results in a global requirement for alternative mobile forms of energy. The development of these alternative forms of energy is summarized within the Mega Trend E-Mobility and Smart Mobility. Within this Mega Trend the main topics are alter-native drives, energy storage systems, concepts for lightweight design and infrastructure for the E-Mobility. Based on this megatrend vehicles could and probably will look completely different com-pared to today’s vehicles. This means new challenges and opportunities for laser based production technologies needed for high volume production. Laser Processing of Dielectric and Brittle Materials (Ceramics, Glass etc.) Thursday, 29 June, 2017, 10:00 – 12:20 Chairmen: Dr. Ulf Quentin, TRUMPF Laser- und Systemtechnik GmbH N.N. Abstract: Processing brittle dielectric materials such as glasses and ceramics is a challenging task: the high hardness combined with the tendency towards brittle URL: www.photonics-congress.com/congress/congress-profile/conferences/applicationpanels/index.html © Messe München GmbH 8/9 fracture makes mechanical processing difficult and since these materials are not conductive, erosion processes are no alternative. Laser-based processes, however, can overcome these limitations. Although the use of cw laser beams is also limited due to heat influence, ultrafast lasers can be used for a wide range of applications that require low heat input and high precision. This application panel presents the state of the art and future possibilities of laser processing of brittle hard materials for different industrial applications.
