SBFOTON
Conference
2019 Connecting people
with light October, 7th — 9th IPEN, USP, São Paulo

The Brazilian Photonics Society, SBFoton, invites the optics and photonics community to attend its second annual meeting, the SBFoton International Optics and Photonics Conference, to be held from October 7th to 9th at the Instituto de Pesquisas Energéticas e Nucleares, IPEN-CNEN/SP, in the city of São Paulo.

The proposed format of the Conference includes plenary sessions, invited speakers, peer-reviewed technical sessions (oral and poster presentations), short-courses and panels, and an exhibit hall. SBFoton 2019, under the theme “Connecting People with Light”, is technically supported by the IEEE Photonics Society (IPS) and The Optical Society (OSA), and is the specific conference for Photonics and related technologies in Brazil.

Call for Papers

Paper registration
deadline May 27th

Paper manuscript
upload deadline May 31st

Prospective authors are encouraged to submit an original full paper for review and presented papers will be further published either by IEEE Xplore or OSA Publishing. Acceptance will be communicated on July 31st and final version upload until August 30th. Accepted papers will be published on IEEE Xplore (indexed by Web of Science and Scopus).

The conference welcomes original contributions in the following and other related relevant topics:

Double Blind review process will be used, which means that special care has to be taken during preparation of the submitted version. To allow that, submit your paper without authors’ names and affiliations but leave an appropriate blank space for including them in the final version. This procedure will guarantee that the paper format does not change and the number of pages does not exceed the page number limit. Once accepted, the uploaded final version must include authors’ names and affiliations.
