Krausz; Max-Planck-Institut fr
Quantenoptik & Ludwig-Maximil-
ians-Universitt Mnchen, Germany.
Atomic-scale electronic motion is a
key process in life as well as modern
technologies, unfolding within
tens to thousands of attoseconds (1
attosecond [as] = 10-18 s) The talk will review recent
advances in laser science that have opened the door to
watching and controlling these hitherto inaccessible
microscopic dynamics [1]-[14]
FerencKrauszwasborninHungaryin1962.Hestudied
Electrical Engineering and Physics In 1991 he obtained
his doctorate in Quantum Electronics and Laser Tech-
nology and became a professor in 1999 at the Vienna
University of Technology In 2003 Professor Krausz was
appointed director at the Max Planck Institute of Quan-
tum Optics in Garching and holds a Chair in Experimen-
tal Physics (Laser Physics) at LMU Munich since 2004
HeisalsodirectoroftheClusterofExcellence:Munich
Centre for Advanced Photonics Ferenc Krausz has made
pioneering contributions to advancing femtosecond and
creating attosecond technology
Inside the WavelengthSeeing
Really Small Objects with Light,
Sir John Pendry, The Blackett
Laboratory, Imperial College London,
UK.
Light, though our eyes, gives us the
most direct means of observing the
world Using a microscope we can
see many objects invisible to the
naked eye, but even the microscope has its limitations: it
is impossible with a conventional microscope to resolve
anything smaller than the wavelength of light Typically
this sets a resolution limit of about 05 microns To do
better than this and to get inside the wavelength scien-
tists have been seeking a deeper understanding of light
and its component electric and magnetic fields We can
now give a theoretical prescription for the perfect lens
that has no limits to resolution I shall report on recent
progress and describe some experiments that bring light
to an intense focus very much smaller than the free space
wavelength
SirJohnPendryisacondensedmattertheorist.He
has worked at the Blackett Laboratory, Imperial Col-
legeLondon,since1981.Hehasworkedextensivelyon
electronic and structural properties of surfaces develop-
ing the theory of low energy diffraction and of electronic
surface states Another interest is transport in disordered
systems where he produced a complete theory of the sta-
tistics of transport in one dimensional systems In 1992
he turned his attention to photonic materials and this
project culminated in the proposal in 2000 for a perfect
lens whose resolution is unlimited by wavelength These
concepts have stimulated further theoretical investiga-
tions and many experiments which have confirmed the
predicted properties More recently in 2006, in col-
laboration with David Smith at Duke University, he has
proposed a recipe for a cloak that can hide an arbitrary
object from electromagnetic fields Several realisations of
this concept have been built, some operating at radar and
others at visible wavelengths

Special Symposia
Laser Science Symposium on
Undergraduate Research
South Tower Foyer and Glen Ellen, Fairmont Hotel
Symposium organizer: HaroldMetcalf; Stony Brook
Univ., USA
This special DLS annual symposium is rapidly becoming
one of the most successful DLS traditions (this years is
the 10th of a series that began at the Long Beach meeting
in 2001) During the past several years the number of
undergraduates presenting papers has grown from only
10 to more than 40, and the talks have been of outstand-
ing quality, some absolutely stellar Last years posters
were outstanding as well, and generated a great deal of
lively interest and on-the-spot discussion This years
symposium will consist of afternoon poster and oral
sessions The event provides an opportunity for some of
the student members of our community, who are already
among the finest young scientists to be found anywhere,
to present their work before an audience of their peers as
well as the larger optics community All are invited and
encouraged to attend the sessions
Special Symposium on Integrated
Optofluidics for the Life Sciences
Empire Room, Fairmont Hotel
Organizer: Carlos Lopez-Mariscal; Navy Res. Labs, USA
This Special Symposium highlights recent progress in
optofluidics towards lab-on-a-chip devices The use of
microfluidic structures and active control of flow within
involves a combination of engineering and scientific
creativity fueled by available fabrication techniques and
ingenuity While integration and miniaturization have
proven to be tractable problems, actual low-cost, thumb-
sized instruments capable of unsupervised, stand-alone
operation still represent a major challenge in the area

Ultrashort Pulses: 20th Anniversary
of Frequency-Resolved Optical Gating
Symposium
Tuesday, 18 October, 08:0010:00 and 13:3015:30
Crystal Room, Fairmont Hotel
In the 1960s, laser pulses became shorter than avail-
able measurement devices, and a new field was born:
Ultrashort laser pulse measurement Researchers quickly
realized that the shortest event available with which to
measure such pulses was the pulse itself, and autocor-
relation was born Alas, the pulse is only as short as itself,
not shorter, and, as a result, autocorrelation only yielded
a rough measure of the pulse length In 1991, however,
Kane and Trebino introduced Frequency-Resolved
Optical Gating (FROG), a spectrally resolved autocor-
relation coupled with a two-dimensional phase-retrieval
algorithm, which solved the problem, yielding the
complete intensity and phase of arbitrary ultrashort laser
pulses Since then FROG has found many applications,
and it continues to be the gold standard of ultrashort-
pulse measurement This symposium celebrates the
anniversary of its introductiontwenty years ago at this
conference

Short Course Descriptions
SC189. Photonic Quantum-Enhanced
Technologies
Ian Walmsley; Univ. of Oxford, UK
Level: Beginner (no background or minimal training is
necessary to understand course material)
Course Description
This course will provide a tutorial overview of the sorts
of enhancements that quantum physics can provide
for technology, and a short survey of applications and
potential applications These will include quantum inter-
ferometry and metrology, microscopy, communications,
cryptography, frequency standards and clock synchroni-
zation, as well as computation and information process-
ing The rudiments of quantum mechanics needed to
understand the technology will be covered, focusing
particularly on quantum interference and entanglement,
as well as laboratory measurement methods
The ideas concerning the application of these principles
to the enhancement of important technologies will then
be discussed One of the critical issues in this area is
how to design schemes that are robust with respect to
unavoidable environmental noise The critical practical
issues that confront real-world implementation of these
concepts are many, and important performance param-
eters that might limit the utility of quantum-enhanced
technologies will also be examined
Benefits and Learning Objectives
This course should enable you to:
Understand some basic ideas of quantum mechan-
ics relevant to technology
Describe key issues related to several classes of
applications
Explain fundamentals of the technological applica-
tions that can benefit from quantum enhancement

SC274. Polarization Engineering
Russell Chipman; Univ. of Arizona, USA
Course Description
This course provides a survey of issues associated with
calculating polarization effects in optical systems us-
ing optical design programs Many optical systems are
polarization-critical and require careful attention to
polarization issues Such systems include liquid crystal
projectors, imaging with active laser illumination, very
high numerical aperture optical systems in microlithog-
raphy and data storage, DVD players, imaging into
tissue and turbid media, optical coherence tomography,
and interferometers Polarization effects are complex:
Retardance has three degrees of freedom; diattenuation
(partial polarization) has three degrees of freedom; and
depolarization, the coupling of polarized into partially
polarized light, has nine degrees of freedom Because of
this complexity, polarization components and the polar-
ization performance of optical systems are rarely com-
pletely specified The polarization aberrations introduced
by thin films and uniaxial crystals can be readily evalu-
ated in several commercial optical design codes These
routines are complex and most optical engineers are
unfamiliar with the capabilities and the forms of output,
but these polarization ray tracing routines provide bet-
ter methods to communicate polarization performance
and specifications between different groups teamed
on complex optical problems Better means of techni-
cal communication speed the development of complex
systems The emphasis is on the practical aspects of po-
larization elements and polarization measurements The

Course Description
The course aims to provide an overview over the basics
and fundamentals of Plasmonics The course will begin
with a description of plasmonics in terms of a classical
dielectric approach, focusing in the excitation of local-
ized surface plasmons (LSP) in finite metallic nanopar-
ticles, acting as effective optical nanoantennas We will
describe how these nanoscale antennas can localize
propagating electromagnetic energy into subwavelength
dimensions, with the corresponding increase of the
local fields in their proximity The course will discuss
the main possibilities to modify and control the proper-
ties of surface plasmons, such as the intrinsic properties
of the material, the influence of the environment, the
geometry or the interaction with neighboring structures
We will also review many physical properties arising
from the strong interaction in plasmonic systems such as
quantum aspects of the plasmonic response or interfer-
ence effects between the resonances producing Fano-like
optical spectra The course will end with a review of the
main applications of surface plasmons in a variety of
fields such as in field-enhanced spectroscopies, sens-
ing, optoelectronic interfacing, improved photovoltaics,
energy transfer, or biomedical diagnosis and therapy, to
cite a few

Inst. Of Optics, Univ.
of Rochester, USA
Course Description
Illumination engineering is a rapidly growing field
with application from solid-state lighting to displays to
solar concentrators Illumination is concerned with the
transfer of light from the source to a target without the
required constraint of imaging Illumination systems
are around us nearly every moment, such as displays
and lights, but in the past few decades the importance
of green systems, including being both environmentally
safe and efficient, are in high demand The tools and
theory available for illumination design are just now
maturing; however, there is still much room for growth
and improvement This course will introduce you to fun-
damental concepts including units, tendue, skewness,
and concentration It will provide an introduction to the
design methods from imaging, nonimaging, and hybrid
techniques Source modeling, including LEDs, arcs, and
the Sun based on the ASTM standards will be provided
It will introduce the various types of optics being used in
illumination, including lightpipes and lightguides, reflec-
tors and concentrators, and hybrid optics Finally, the
course will end with a discussion of applications includ-
ing lighting, solar concentrators, displays, lit appearance,
optimization, and tolerancing Examples from state-of-
the-art software will illustrate the concepts and provide
a framework for you to do your own modeling after the
courseiscomplete.Additionally,modelingtricksofthe
tradewillbeprovidedtomakeyourmodelingmoreef-
ficient and worthwhile
This course will enable participants to:
Work in the illumination industry, including, but
not limited to, the solid-state lighting and solar
sectors
Specify, design, and analyze various types of il-
lumination systems
Determine the best source, especially LEDs, for a
prescribed application
Explain basic concepts such as tendue and
concentration, compute these terms accurately or
with standard approximations Such calculations
provide the theoretical limits to the design process,
thus providing goals
Compare design results such as the irradiance/il-
luminance, intensity, and/or radiance/luminance
distributions of models to the desired results
Intended Audience
The course material is primarily for those actively de-
signing, specifying, and/or fabricating optical systems
The participants should have at minimum introductory
training in the field of optical design and engineering
Individuals with more experience in optical design and
engineering, especially those in the imaging domain, will
also find great utility in the course For those actively
participating in illumination, it is expected to provide
useful material for their work Note that some of the
material is more advanced, but every effort is made to
explain these topics in lay terms

Optofluidic Manipulation of Particles for Separa-
tion, Purification, and Analysis, Sean Hart; US Naval
Research Laboratory, USA. An optofluidic system and
applications are described where biological samples
are characterized and separated in a microfluidic
device based upon their intrinsic properties. As an
example, optical force differences have been mea-
sured between various human blood cells including
lymphocytes, monocytes, granulocytes, and erythro-
cytes indicating the potential to harness optical force
differences to separate blood cells.

IBM Zurich GMBH, Switzerland. CMOS
integrated silicon nanophotonics allows ultra-dense
monolithic single-chip integration of optical and
electrical functions. This technology can enable
future Exa-scale supercomputers by connecting racks,
modules, and chips together with ultra-low power
massively parallel optical interconnects.
FMC1 13:30 Invited
Ultrafast Dynamics in Surface Chemical Reactions
Probed with Free-Electron Lasers, Wilfried Wurth;
University of Hamburg, Germany. The talk will review
recent time resolved x-ray spectroscopy experiments
performed at the Linac Coherent Light Source LCLS
in Stanford with the goal to follow surface chemical
reactions in real time on femtosecond timescales.
FMD1 13:30
Near Threshold Optomechanical Backaction
Amplifier, Warwick P. Bowen

Centre for Engineered Quantum Systems, University
of Queensland, Australia. We demonstrate a near
threshold optomechanical backaction amplifier,
where optical amplification is achieved via dynamical
radiation pressure effects. Amplification as large as 22
dB is observed with an input power of only 12 W.

Swiss Light Source,
Paul Scherrer Inst., Switzerland. A methodology for
using the phase of x-ray coherent diffractive images
to obtain quantitative nanoscale phase tomograms is
presented. We show the application of this technique.

Australia. The combination of parametric driving
and quantum measurement allows mechanical
squeezing far surpassing that achieved by either
technique alone. Strong squeezing can be achieved
even for measurements much too weak to resolve
the zero-point motion.

Tutorial

Recent Progresses in Optical Metamaterials,
Xiang Zhang; Univ. of California at Berkeley, USA.
Metamaterials are artificially designed subwavelength
composites that possess extraordinary properties not
existing in naturally occurring materials. In particular,
they can alter the propagation of electromagnetic
waves resulting in negative refraction, subwavelength
focusing and even in cloaking of macroscopic objects.
Such unusual properties can be obtained by a careful
design of dielectric or metal-dielectric composites
on a deep sub-wavelength scale. The metamaterials
may have profound impact in wide range of applica-
tions such as nano-scale imaging, nanolithography,
and integrated nano photonics. I will discuss a few
recent experiments demonstrating intriguing phe-
nomena associated with Metamaterials. These include
subdiffraction limit imaging and focusing, low-loss
and broad-band negative-refraction of visible light,
negative-index metamaterials and the first cloak op-
erating at optical frequencies; an all-dielectric carpet
cloak with broad-band and low-loss performance. I
will also present our recent demonstration of a deep
sub-wavelength plasmonic laser.

FDTD algorithm coupled to semiclassical rate equa-
tions. We observe differential transmittance signals
from the coupled system that are a factor of four to
five larger than for the bare quantum well. We ob-
serve a more rapid temporal decay of the differential
transmittance signal for the coupled system compared
to the bare quantum well. The effective metamaterial
gain beyond the bare quantum-well gain, leading to a
significant reduction of the metamaterials losses, but
no complete compensation of the losses. We explain
experimentally observed negative differential trans-
mission by gain-dependent impedance.

Entanglement of very high orbital angular momen-
tum, Robert Fickler, Peizhe Li, Radek Lapkiewicz,
Mario Krenn, Christoph Schaeff, Marcin Wiesniak,
Sven Ramelow, Anton Zeilinger; University of Vienna,
Austria. Orbital angular momentum (OAM) of single
photons represents a new optical degree of freedom
for the entanglement of photons [1,2]. One physical
realization of OAM carrying light beams are the so
called Laguerre-Gaussian modes of light with the
required helical phase structure. One big advantage
over the well-known polarization degree of freedom is
the possibility of realizing entanglement between two
photons with very high quantum numbers. However,
the creation of photonic OAM entanglement using the
widely used spontaneous parametric downconversion
process is limited by the strongly reduced efficiency
for higher momenta [3]. We have realized a novel
method to create entanglement between two photons
with a very high difference in their OAM quantum
number and momentum respectively. Furthermore we
have explored hybrid entanglement of photons in the
OAM and polarization degree of freedom.
