Synopsis

The conference on Manufacturing, Tolerancing and Testing of Optical Systems will highlight significant technology trends, emerging technologies and associated prospective developments in the field of optics fabrication and testing. This conference provides a forum for all aspects of optics fabrication, tolerancing, and testing, ranging from micro to large-scale optics and from high value one-off to mass-produced components including lessons learned papers on special manufacturing issues such as polishing process stability and finishing processes for high-end optics, optics featuring clear apertures below 1 mm or above 100 mm in diameter. One main goal of the meeting is to provide a better link between the design, the manufacturing, and the characterization of optical components and systems. For the second time, there will be a reviewed industrial poster session displayed during the whole conference with companies presenting their key technology competences.

PLENARY TALK
 

David walker 1The future of optical fabrication - demand, supply and technology

Prof. David Walker

Professor of Ultra Precision Surfaces, University of Huddersfield
Honorary Senior Research Associate, University College London
Research Director, Zeeko Ltd

 

David Walker spent his earlier years at UCL developing optical instruments for some of the world's largest optical telescopes, becoming increasingly interested in manufacture and metrology of optical surfaces. In 2000 he co-founded Zeeko Ltd as Research Director, and developed a fertile university/company research-relationship. In 2004 he moved to the OpTIC Centre in North Wales to establish the National Facility for Ultra Precision Surfaces. He worked on numerous projects, including R&D based on a novel process-chain, for manufacture of prototype mirror-segments for the European Extremely Large Telescope. In 2014 he received the Institute of Physics prize for his work in astronomical instrumentation and commercialisation. He accepted a Professorship at the University of Huddersfield in 2016, and this year has moved his group from OpTIC to the national Daresbury Laboratory, as part of a strategic development with Huddersfield. His current research grapples with the ambitious vision of achieving fully-autonomous manufacture of ultra-precision surfaces.
 

 

 

INVITED TALKS


Pushing precision manufacturing to the limits: optics for EUV lithography

Back in 1995 ZEISS began its EUV optics development program to enable EUV lithography @13.5nm. In 2019 semiconductor manufacturer will start high volume manufacturing of chips using an ASML EUV Step-and-Scan system with optics from ZEISS. This important milestone was achieved by pushing the limits of optics precision manufacturing from nm to pm range over the last two decades. The presentation gives some top level insights in the state of the art EUV optics manufacturing @ ZEISS.

SUBMISSION

Submission for presentations is closed. Industrial posters can be sent until June 10: www.conftool.com/wpc2019


Submission time frame: January 10 - (March 21, 2019) EXTENDED TO APRIL 22

Submissions are accepted for oral and poster presentations. Companies have a choice to submit an industrial poster.

All 2-page abstracts submitted and presented at the conference will be added to the proceedings, published with EDP Sciences, in the Web of Conferences. The authors retain the copyright of their abstracts. The proceedings are indexed in main data bases and available online after the conference.

At least one author is requested to register for the meeting.
 

Read the Submission guidelines and download the templates before starting the submission process.

 

Industrial Poster for MOS Conference:

Companies have an opportunity to show their know-how to the conference attendees by sending a poster to be presented on the wall inside the conference room. This is an efficient (and inexpensive!) way to promote your company and have high visibility at the World of Photonics Congress.
