Les Houches School of PhysicsSince 1951

The workshop is dedicated to bring leaders in integrated photonics platform of Lithium Niobate On Insulator (LNOI) together with the aim of providing an overview on the advances that have been achieved over the last years, use this overview to speculate about future opportunities of LNOI and provide recommendations on how these opportunties can be realized by coordinated research efforts. The workshop will cover all aspects, including simulation and fabrication, devices that use electro-optic and nonlinear optical properties of LNOI, and applications spanning from quantum optical to classical. This workshop is motivated as shortly after its emergence, the LNOI platform has taken the performance of electro-optical and nonlinear optical devices to a higher level, taking the lead over the bulk lithium niobate-based compounds developed over the last decades, making this unique workshop very timely as it will provide a forcast of the future of this platfrom and boost coordinated research collaborations.
