Laserlab-Europe Talk: Materials and post-processes for multi-photon lithography

# data[].attributes.description
Title: Materials and post-processes for multi-photon lithographySpeaker: Dimitra Ladika (VULRC)Date: Wednesday, 29 April 2026, 16:00-17:00 Central European Summer Time (CEST) Multi-photon lithography (MPL) enables the fabrication of true 3D micro- and nanostructures without the need for masks or complex tooling, directly from computer-aided designs. Owing to these unique capabilities, MPL has emerged as a powerful manufacturing technique across a wide range of disciplines. The ongoing growth of MPL is closely linked to advances in material design and post-processing strategies. In particular, the composition of MPL photoresists, including the presence or absence of photoinitiators, plays a critical role in defining fabrication thresholds, resolution, and the optical properties of the resulting structures. While photoinitiators can enhance polymerization efficiency, they may also introduce fluorescence and coloration, limiting their use in certain applications. In contrast, photoinitiator-free and doped systems offer alternative pathways toward improved optical performance. The interaction of these materials with femtosecond laser irradiation across multiple wavelengths provides additional flexibility for controlling polymerization and tailoring spectral response. Additionally, post-processing approaches, such as calcination and surface coatings, further extend the capabilities of MPL by enabling the fabrication of fully inorganic and spectrally adaptable architectures. These strategies enhance the functionality and stability of the fabricated 3D structures without fundamentally altering the initial material platform. Overall, these developments demonstrate the potential of material-driven approaches in MPL for applications in photonics and optoelectronics.

Laserlab-Europe and Lasers4EU Annual and Users Meeting 2026

# data[].attributes.description
The joint annual meeting of the Laserlab-Europe AISBL and the Horizon Europe project Lasers4EU offers a central forum for networking and collaboration, bringing together representatives of leading research institutes, industry representatives and early-stage researchers to discuss the latest developments in laser-based technologies and their scientific and industrial applications. The Annual Meeting, held in a hybrid format, will take place from 26 to 29 May 2026 at HiLASE Centre and ELI Beamlines in Dolní Břežany, Czechia. We look forward to welcoming you to an engaging and insightful event! 																																																					Register to the Annual Meeting 2026																																																																												Apply for the Poster Session																																																																																												Programme																																																																					Sessions and supplementary programme (open to all)																							The following thematic sessions and supplementary events are open to participants from outside Laserlab-Europe and Lasers4EU.A dedicated poster area will showcase the research results of early-stage researchers.An exhibition area will be available for interested companies.All participants and company representatives are invited to contribute to the discussions at the end of each session.Thematic sessions:  																																											 																											Lasers in the Future Development of Space																											Unlocking Stories from the Past: Laser-based Technology for Cultural Heritage				In this session we will explore how cutting-edge laser and spectroscopy techniques are transforming the study, preservation and understanding of cultural heritage. From non-invasive imaging and advanced material characterization to conservation and diagnostics of historical artefacts: presentations will highlight scientific breakthroughs from fundamental research to applications that bridge academia and industry demonstrating how laser-based methods reveal hidden histories and support sustainable preservation of our shared cultural treasures. 																							 AI for Laser-based Systems				AI and data science are crucial to link advanced photonic research to application scenarios like in clinics or environmental monitoring. This session focuses on the methodologies allowing the use of AI in small samples size scenarios, which typically arise in photonics-oriented research.
