XVII International conference on pulsed lasers and laser applications – AMPL-2025

September 14-19, 2025, Tomsk

Second Announcement

Dear colleagues,
Arrangements for the XVII International Conference on pulsed lasers and laser applications AMPL-2025 (Atomic and Molecular Pulsed Lasers) are going on.

General information
The AMPL Conference, which is held in Tomsk biennially, is the greatest scientific forum on this subject in the Commonwealth of Independent States. In 2025, by decision of the Organizing Committee, the Conference is timed to coincide with the 100th anniversary of Academician V.E. Zuev and will be held from the 14th to the 19th of September. The Conference is going to be organized in the traditional offline format. Meanwhile the online format is still available for participants who don’t have the opportunity to take part in the Conference in person due to the restrictions of international flights.
The following topical areas will be considered at the Conference: new laser transitions; laser pumping systems; peculiarities of energy input into laser active media; up-to-date power supplies and active elements; lasers with a complex composition of active media; investigation of photoprocesses in organic compounds; materials for optoelectronics; non-linear processes in molecular systems under laser emission; conversion of laser radiation in crystal and gaseous media; color center laser; harmonic generators of sum and difference frequencies; new materials for laser emission conversion; carbon-based electronics and photonics; synthesis of materials etc.
Within the Conference, peculiar attention will be paid to laser applications in different areas of science and engineering (ecology, medicine, industry, fight against terrorism, research activities, etc.), discussion of problems of laser-based apparatus development, new optical technologies, as well as to exchange of practical experience on the application of the achievements of science to production and project commercialization. The AMPL Conference is a traditional place for meeting potential partners, optical devices manufacturers, customers, and executors of research efforts and experimental development.

Sessions
The Conference will include lectures, oral and poster presentations.
The Conference scientific program offers the following sessions:
  • Promising Media for Lasers and Optoelectronic Devices Development (session A);
  • Discharges for Lasers and Non-Coherent Radiation Sources (session B);
  • Ultrashort Laser Pulses (session C);
  • Laser Applications, Laser Systems, Laser-Optical Technologies (session D);
  • Non-Coherent Radiation Sources (session E);
  • Photonics in Remote Studies of Environment (session F);
  • Biophotonics (session G);
  • Photophysical Processes, Conversation of Laser Radiation, Nonlinear Optics and Laser Synthesis of Nanostructures (session H). Round table dedicated to the 90th anniversary of the creation of the first spectroscopy laboratory in Siberia by N.A. Prilezhaeva.
  • Carbon Materials in Quantum Electronics, Photonics and Optoelectronics (session I);
  • Plenary Session (session P)
The School for young scientists (younger than 35 years by 31 December 2025), students and postgrads AMPL-School and a competition for them will be held. A competition will take place within the session Y (session of young scientists) in two categories: for participants with the scientific degree and without it.

Publications
Abstracts of reports and the Conference program will be posted on the Conference website. In addition to publishing abstracts in English, a Collection of full-text (3 to 6 pages) papers in Russian will be published on the website, with ISBN assigned to the Collection, DOI for each paper, and indexation of each paper in the Russian Science Citation Index (RSCI). Each paper will be reviewed by two reviewers. The Collection will be published in 2025.
The papers selected by the Organizing Committee will be published in expanded form in the Proceedings of SPIE. Conference participants will have the opportunity to publish selected and recommended papers in a special issue of the journals «Optika Atmosfery i Okeana» (2026). The rules for submitting manuscripts can be found on the websites of these journals.
Please note that the cost of publishing one full-text paper in the Collection in Russian with assignment of DOI is included in the participant's registration fee. Subsequent articles are paid for separately, the cost is 20 €.
The rules for the design of papers correspond to the rules of the journal «Optika Atmosfery i Okeana». The template for preparing a manuscript for the Collection of papers based on the Conference materials can be found on the Conference website in the «Additional Information» section. To submit a paper to the Collection, please send the materials to the Organizing Committee indicating the number of the report for which the paper is being submitted. The Organizing Committee reminds that all materials submitted to the Conference are open and must not contain information that constitutes a state or commercial secret. In this regard, it is necessary to prepare the documents on the possibility of open publication.
