Advanced Laser Innovations – From Micro-Diodes to Macro-Applications
This session, hosted by the Laserverbund, highlights the diverse impact of laser technology across industry, transit, and science. Experts from the Berlin-Brandenburg region will present breakthrough applications spanning four key areas:

 -   Laser Fusion Through Diode Lasers: The Ferdinand-Braun-Institut (FBH) presents strategic developments in high-brightness diode lasers for fusion power plants.
 -   Mobile Surface Cleaning: "Lasermeister" demonstrates eco-friendly laser technology for urban graffiti removal.
  -   Ultralight Rail Engineering: photon AG showcases advanced photonic lightweight construction for the ICE 4 high-speed train.
 -   Astrophotonics: The Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam (AIP) explores cutting-edge laser applications in astronomical research.

This session bridges fundamental semiconductor research with heavy-industry manufacturing and space exploration, demonstrating the cross-industry power of modern photonics. It tries to open a window into the possible future of laser applications not yet standard.
