On Sep.20,2020,the first "Qiushi"Forum of Advanced Photonics was successfully held at the administration building in the International Campus of Zhejiang University alongside the webinars via webex. The forum was co-organized byInternational Research Center for Advanced Photonics, Joint International Research Laboratory of Photonics (JIRLOP), Joint InternationalCenter for Photonic Technology, State Key Laboratory of Modern Optical Instrumentations and College of Optical Science and Engineering ,ZJU. It aims to provide platform to discuss the foreland of the technical development of advanced photonics, promote the technical exchange of young scholars both at home and aboard in the field of advanced photonics, continuously deepen exchanges and cooperation in scientific research and talent training, and enhance the attractiveness and academic influence of the subjects and the institutes.
Professor Daoxin Dai, Vice Dean of College of Optical Science and Engineering, ZJU,ProfessorYungui Ma, executive deputy director of the International Research Centre for advanced photonics and more than 20 young scholars from the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Singapore, Switzerland, Denmark, etattended the forum .
Professor Daoxin Dai extended a warm welcome to all the guests who attended the forum and expressed his good expectations for the forum.
Professor Jianrong Qiu, director of Institute of Micro & Nano Photonics,ZJU,gave the first reports. Professor Jianrong Qiu reviewed the opportunity and challenge of laser manufacturing.
