The Photonics Talents Summer School brings together academics and industrial companies, offering European Master’s and PhD students the opportunity to explore cutting-edge research in photonics. From attoscience to sustainable manufacturing, the program covered cutting-edge topics shaping the future of photonics. Among the highlights of the week:
🔹AI Meets Laser Processing
h-nu’s Eric Mottay explored how machine learning enhances ultrafast laser processing, tackling challenges like process variability and efficiency. His talk highlighted AI-driven innovations that refine precision manufacturing.
🔹A Surprise from a Nobel Laureate
Students got an unexpected treat—2022 Nobel Prize winner Alain Aspect dropped in to discuss the second Quantum Revolution, and how is experiments settled a historical debate between Einstein and Bohr!
🔹 Outstanding Student Research
The student poster session was at the level of top scientific conferences, making jury decisions nearly impossible. The enthusiasm and expertise on display reaffirmed that the future of photonics is in good hands.
At h-nu, we’re excited to be part of this community. The next generation of photonics talent is here.
