Welcome to TMP2025

Over the past decade, photonics has been a driving force behind groundbreaking innovations in optical communications, quantum technologies, biomedical imaging, and energy-efficient devices. In Malaysia, its expansion has been instrumental in advancing industries such as semiconductor manufacturing, telecommunications, and medical diagnostics. With the nation's strong push toward Industry 4.0 and smart technologies, photonics continues to reshape national development, enabling transformative breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and sustainable energy solutions.

Beyond these applications, photonics plays a crucial role in quantum communication, cryptography, and high-precision sensing, ensuring secure data transmission and advanced measurement capabilities. Its integration into hydrogen energy research is fostering new innovations in production, storage, and distribution, paving the way for a low-carbon, sustainable energy future. Furthermore, photonics-driven solutions are revolutionizing carbon capture and storage (CCS), enhancing optical monitoring techniques for environmental sustainability.

As photonics rapidly evolves, it is essential to create a platform for academia to share knowledge, exchange ideas, and strengthen expertise. TMP2025 is designed as an academic-driven meeting, where researchers from diverse backgrounds come together to discuss the latest advancements, explore new research directions, and expand their knowledge. The meeting also welcomes industry involvement, providing opportunities to bridge academia and industry, fostering discussions that translate research into real-world applications.

Through TMP2025, we aim to cultivate strategic collaborations that will elevate Malaysia’s photonics research landscape. The meeting will showcase the contributions of local experts, introduce emerging researchers, and encourage meaningful interactions between academic institutions and industry players. By enhancing knowledge-sharing and networking, TMP2025 strives to position Malaysia at the forefront of photonics innovation, ensuring a brighter, technology-driven future.

Join us at TMP2025, where academia meets academia, and research meets impact.

Organizer

The Topical Meeting on Photonics (TMP2025) is organized by the IEEE Photonics Society, Malaysia Chapter (MyIPS) to provide a dedicated platform for knowledge sharing and collaboration in photonics science, technology, and applications.

This year, TMP2025 is hosted by Photonics Technology Research Group (Photonics), a prominent research group at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM), recognized for its contributions to photonics research. In collaboration with Jurnal Optoelektronik (JoE), the conference ensures a rigorous peer-review process, with accepted papers published in JoE’s special issue. Through this meeting, we invite researchers to connect, exchange insights, and contribute to the advancement of photonics research in Malaysia and beyond.
