META 2018, the 9th International Conference on Metamaterials, Photonic Crystals and Plasmonics

Round-trip Marseille Cruise

June 24, 2018 – July 1, 2018


Join us for the next edition META 2019
in Lisbon - Portugal!


For its 10th Anniversary, META 2018 will be a memorable event - the most spectacular conference we ever arranged! We will embark on the Dream-class cruise ship Costa Diadema, the largest vessel flying an Italian flag. We will be sailing together in the Western Mediterranean for 8 days and visiting 6 exciting cities. Don’t miss to join, with your families, this once-in-a lifetime experience!

 

META 2018 will be the opportunity to present your recent results, and meet and network with world renowned experts in Nanophotonics and Metamaterials. The program will facilitate discussions on various current hot topics such as metasurfaces & metadevices, topological effects in optics, two-dimensional materials, light-matter interaction in nanocavities, plasmonic circuits, thermal engineering, quantum photonic systems, etc. Featuring several plenary, keynote and invited speakers, the program will provide insights into the latest trends and strategies actionable to deal with the practical challenges faced by the community.

Associated Journals & Special Issues

All conference participants are invited to submit manuscripts for consideration in one of the journal special issues associated with the conference: Nanophotonics (De Gruyter), Applied Physics A (Springer), Optical Materials Express (OSA) & Advanced Electromagnetics.

Year after year, META becomes a MUST ATTEND Event!
