国际光学与光子学会SPIE简介.doc

国际光学与光子学会SPIE简介SPIE成立于1955年，致力于推动以光为基础的技术，服务了超过170个国家。SPIE每年组织或赞助近25个大型技术论坛、展览以及培训项目，范围遍及北美、欧洲、亚洲及澳洲。1957年，出版了第一期SPIE报刊，举办了第一届国家技术研讨会。1960年，SPIE报刊刊登了第一组技术论文。1963年，SPIE举办了第一届研讨班形式的会议并出版了第一批会议记录。1973年，总部从Redondo Beach迁往加州的Palos Verdes。1975年，协会收入达到50万美元，实现了财政自给。1977年，成立了协会金牌奖。总部迁往华盛顿Bellingham。1995年，举办了成立40周年庆典。合作赞助了在西安举办的国际传感器应用与电子器件展览会。2000年，SPIE会员Zhores I. Alferov因在半导体异质结构和高速光电子学方面的贡献获得诺物理学奖。2003年，SPIE数字图书馆启动，提供了期刊和会议纪要的七万篇文献。现在的光学和光电子学大都围绕信息光学展开研究。在集成光信息处理方面，有光计算、光学互连、衍射光学等前沿领域；在成像方面，较热门的技术有光学计算机断层成像和三维共焦成像系统；在光学传感器方面，人们越来越关注三维传感技术；新一代的全息术和光学信息处理技术也亟待开发。同时，信息光学的材料和装置也成为了热门领域。更加偏向应用领域的还有人机接口与显示技术。当然还有很多基础理论问题，如非线性光学、超快光学现象、散射、位相共轭等。Statement of PurposeSPIE is an international society advancing an interdisciplinary approach to the science and application of light.About the SocietySPIE is the international society for optics and photonics founded in 1955 to advance light-based technologies.
