Mis on fotoonika pev? Mis on fotoonika? Fotoonika peva thistatakse Eestis 2014. aastal esmakordselt nii kohalikes ettevtetes kui teadusasutustes ning Eesti kige suurem ritus toimub sel aastal uues Physicumi hoones Tartus. Fotoonika hlmab laiemas thenduses kiki tegevusalasid, kus footoneid ehk valgust kiiratakse, neelatakse vi manipuleeritakse: alates LED ja laser- tehnoloogiatest kuni CCD-detektorite, pikesepaneelide, sensorite ja optiliste kiududeni. Miks seda thistatakse? Euroopa Liit on fotoonika vlja toonud kui he vtmethtsusega tulevikutehnoloogia, mis peaks lhitulevikus majanduskasvu vedama ja elu-olu mjutama pea sama palju kui praegu elektroonika. Selle tehnoloogia ja teadus- haru tutvustamiseks korraldatakse Euroopa Fotoonikatstuse Klastri (EPIC) eestvttel le kogu Euroopa ja mitmel pool mujal maailmas 21. oktoobril fotoonika peva (vt day-of-photonics.org). 21. oktoober on peva thistamiseks vlja valitud, kuna sel peval 1983. aastal defineeriti lplikult valguse kiiruseks 299792458 m/s, mis on ndseks koos sekundi definitsiooniga pikkusmtude absoluutseks etaloniks. Kellele see ritus on suunatud? Kuulama ja vaatama on oodatud kik, kes on huvitatud fotoonikast, optikast vi uue Physicumis avanevatest koost vimalustest. Kindlasti pole huvilistel, professionaalidel ja tulevikutegijatele jnud mrkamata, et 2014. aastal on nii fsika kui keemia Nobeli preemiad olnud seotud otseselt fotoonikaga. Osalemiseks palume registreerida end 20. oktoobriks veebilehel fi.ut.ee oleva lingi kaudu. Toimumise koht: Physicumi suured auditooriumid Tartu likooli Fsika Instituut, Ravila 14c, Tartu. Uus Physicum on omaette vaatamist vrt ning enamus sealsetest laboritest ja tgruppidest on vhemal vi rohkemal mral fotoonikaga seotud ning nende seadmed, vimekused ja uurimissuunad vrivad levaatamist.
