At the 36th Optics Colloquium of the Institute of Technical Optics (ITO) at the University of Stuttgart, Prof. Dr. Niels Quack (IMS CHIPS) presented current research on optical switching technologies for future data centers and high-performance computing (HPC).

Titel oft he talk was: “Optical switches: from micromirrors to integrated photonics” it highlighted how optical technologies can help address the growing demands for bandwidth, energy efficiency, and scalability in modern computing infrastructures.

The colloquium brought together researchers and experts from academia and industry and provided an excellent platform for discussing current developments in integrated optics and micro-optics.

Thank you very much for the invitation, dear ITO.
