The organizing committees extend a warm welcome for you to attend the 2012 Conference on Optical MEMS & Nanophotonics in Banff, Alberta, Canada. Our international conference is distinguished by its strong technical content, intimate meeting format and stimulating social activities that provide exceptional opportunities for interaction and networking between students and academic and industrial professionals. 

Optical MEMS & Nanophotonics technologies are advancing rapidly with vigorous research and development in academic, government and industrial laboratories around the world. Already contributing in many commercial technology sectors, Optical MEMS & Nanophotonics devices promise to deliver unprecedented capabilities for imaging, display, optical communications, sensing and fundamental science advances in the future.
 
We invite you to participate in our conference by sharing your original research related to optical micro electro-mechanical systems and fabrication technologies, Nanophotonic devices, materials and techniques, and novel applications for these emerging technologies. Contributed talks and posters combined with plenary and invited talks from world leaders will create an inspiring and thought provoking experience.
 
This will be our first time meeting in Canada! The Banff Centre is a modern conference facility located in the heart of Banff National Park, where we will enjoy the breathtaking beauty of the Canadian Rockies and experience the local western hospitality.
 
Please join us in Banff in 2012!
