2019 China’s Top 10 Optical Breakthroughs Released

Mar 23, 2020

The Chinese Laser Press, a press hosted by Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics (SIOM) of the Chinese Academy of Science, and the Chinese Optical Society, released the 2019 Award for China’s Top 10 Optical Breakthroughs on Mar. 20 in Shanghai. 20 research results, classified by fundamental research and applied research, were awarded, among which some hot topics, such as photonic chip, smart laser and full color laser display were applauded by the awarding committee.

Initiated by Chinese Laser Press in 2005, this event aims to disseminate innovative and important achievements by Chinese researchers and further boost the development of optics in China.

The topics of this award cover all fields related to optics. The whole evaluation process consists of three stages, i.e. recommendation, preliminary selection and final selection.
