2018 Nobel Prize in Physics Awarded
The 2018 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to three distinguished contributors to the SPIE Community. SPIE congratulates Arthur Ashkin, Donna Strickland, and Gérard Mourou for their accomplishments in laser sciences and for becoming the latest Nobel Laureates working in the optics and photonics fields. To celebrate, SPIE is providing their SPIE publications free to the community through the end of 2018. Njut av!
