IMEKO TC2 Photonics - AIMS

The aim of TC2 is to promote Modern Optical Measuring Techniques in its development
(theory, bases and application), which are based on the Detection and/or Observation
of an Interaction of Photons or Electromagnetic Radiation with an Item under test.

Main fields of interests are:

	Emphasis of the Measuring Procedures Spectroscopy (Fluorescence, Raman, etc).  Interferometry (White-Light and Laser-Interferometry, Speckle, OCT, etc.) Modulating Techniques (Pulse, Doppler, FM etc.) Structured Illumination Techniques Image Sensing (Camera-Based Sensors) Confocal Measurements Wave Front Sensors Deflectometric Measurement
	Emphasis of the Development Miniaturization of Optical Measurement Systems (e.g. Integrated Optical Systems, Fibre-Optical Sensors, Laser Sensors)  Multi-Sensorial Systems Intelligent and Self-Inspecting Systems Scalable Systems Fibre Optics and Photonic Crystals New Light Sources and Detectors Simulation and optic design
	Emphasis of the Application Fields Life Science (Medicine, Environment, Pharmacy , Biology, Food etc.) Production Technology IT-Systems Traffic
	General Interest Comparison of Optical Systems in Competition with other Measuring Techniques
