Symposium M of the 1998 annual meeting of the European Materials
Research Society has been devoted to "Molecular Photonics for
Optical Communications: Materials, Physics and Device Technology."
It was held in Strasbourg from 15-19 June, building on the sizable
success of the former symposium "Molecular Electronics and
Photonics," held during the last 1997 E-MRS meeting. A total of 42
oral and 36 poster presentations were delivered at this symposium.
A most remarkable common feature to almost all papers presented
concerned a very broad approach which was given to this particular
field of "Materials Science," starting at the borderlines between
chemistry and physics, photonics and electronics, from their most
fundamental aspects all the way to technology and device
engineering considerations.
The manuscripts have been gathered in four main areas. First and
foremost, we brought together the papers encompassing the growing
area of "Device Physics and Technology," to reflect the emphasis
given during this symposium to the crucial application aspect of
this theme of "Materials Science." The second chapter presents the
most recent advances achieved in the field of "Luminescent
Structures," which is one of the most active research areas in the
field of (macro)molecular-based optoelectronics and lasing
materials aiming at the realization of a polymer-based laser diode.
The third chapter, demonstrates recent advances in the field of
"Photonic Structures," whereby the most recent achievements have
been brought to the attention of the scientific community,
particularly in the realms of photorefractive polymers and
nonlinear integrated optics devices. Finally the fourth chapter
presents a very basic understanding of "Organic Solid State
Properties," such as pertain to optically detected magnetic
resonance or photo-conductivity studies.
Among the foremost conclusions to be drawn from the papers in both
oral and poster sessions, the huge progress which has been
accomplished towards the fabrication of real devices stands-out as
a most noteworthy feature: this clearly signals to the organic
community and hopefully much beyond, that molecular materials and
associated devices have matured considerably in terms of
fabrication technologies, stability and lifetime issues, as well as
for the fundamental understanding of their properties.
