Complex Light and Optical Forces XXI — SPIE OPTO, SPIE Photonics West 2027 (CLOF)

Complex Light and Optical Forces is an annual SPIE conference within the OPTO symposium at Photonics West, on structured light and optical manipulation. It invites original contributions on structured light, optical vortices and orbital angular momentum, optical trapping and tweezers, optical forces and optomechanics, singular optics, polarization and topological light, metasurface beam shaping. Submissions may take the form of full research papers, extended abstracts and poster presentations reporting theoretical, computational and experimental work, as well as industrial case studies and applications. The meeting brings together researchers, engineers, industry practitioners and students to exchange recent results and discuss emerging directions in the field. Accepted papers are published in the Proceedings of SPIE.
