GOLD Sponsor:
SPIE, the world's largest optics and photonics society, based on a Memorandum of Understanding with the Photonics Society of Poland, has funded 3 Awards for Students, including PhD students, presenting at the IOS 2026 Conference in person, the results of scientific research obtained with their own participation.
The amount of each Award is one thousand PLN.
The Award Committee appointed by the IOS 2026 Scientific Committee will decide which presentations will be distinguished with the SPIE Award.
The IOS 2026 Organizers strongly encourage all students to submit their presentations to the SPIE Award.
In the period of February 27 - March 3, 2023, another Integrated Optics - Sensors, Sensing Structures and Methods IOS '2023 Conference was held at the META Hotel in Szczyrk (Poland).
The Conference takes place in a form with the direct participation of the Participants.
The Conference aroused great interest in the Polish and international photonic community.
About 130 participants took part in the conference. Above 100 scientific work were presented.
In the common opinion of the Participants, the scientific level of the Conference was high.
Selected works have been recommended by the Scientific Committee of IOS'2023 for publication in the Photonics Letters of Poland journal.
The Organizers of IOS'2023 would like to thank all Conference Participants for their activity.
The Scientific Committee of IOS'2023 congratulates the Authors of the presented at the Conference works their high scientific levels.
Yours faithfully
On behalf of the Scientific and Organizational Committees

Publications of works from the IOS'2022 Conference
Dear Participants of the IOS'2022 Conference
Authors of works that were presented at the IOS'2022 Conference in the form of oral and poster presentations may apply for their publication in the online journal Photonics Letters of Poland (PLP) on preferential terms.
Photonics Letters of Poland is a journal indexed by all bibliometric databases, including Web of Science (WoS) and SCOPUS. According to the Journal Scoring List of the Ministry of Science and Education, papers published in the PLP Journal are assessed at 40pt.
Papers qualified by the IOS'2022 Scientific Committee of the Conference will be published in No 2 in 2022 of the PLP journal.
Papers in PLP should be submitted via the website of this Journal (https://photonics.pl//PLP/index.php/letters).
The form of the manuscript preparation (and other information concerning the publication processes) are available on the above website.
The works should be submitted by the deadline of May 15, 2022.
Yours faithfully

The project QUNNA „ QUantum-effect-based Nanosensing and imaging: Novel glass-diamond photonic approach for the next generation biodiagnostic Applications” has been awarded 4.3 mln EUR funding in the prestigious TEAM-NET call organized by the Foundation for Polish Science (2nd rank on the list). The project is carried out by the consortium of University of Warsaw, Jagiellonian University of Cracow, Gdańsk University of Technology and Institute of Biotechnology and Molecular Medicine (IBMM).
The aim of the project is to apply phenomena of quantum physics for deployment of nanodiamond based technologies into innovative sensors that could be utilized in optical and magnetic research, electronics and medical diagnostics.
Within the 4 year-long project, scientists will explore new materials, components and photonic systems displaying specific magnetic and optical properties. The resulting optoelectronic solutions will be introduced to the market in order to advance diagnostics of neurodegenerative diseases and cancer, among others.
The aim of the first edition of the TEAM-NET program organized by the Foundation for Polish Science is to enable far-reaching projects carried out by a network of cooperating research teams managed by outstanding scientists.
