This edition of PHOTOPTICS will feature three dedicated tracks: Optics, which covers fundamental and applied research in classical and modern optics; Photonics, focusing on advancements in optical communication, sensing, and quantum photonics; and Lasers, addressing laser physics, sources, applications, and industrial processes. The conference provides a platform for researchers, engineers, and industry professionals to present new methods, emerging technologies, advanced prototypes, and theoretical developments. General survey papers discussing future research directions are also welcome
