Year 2015 is designated as the "International Year of Light and Light-based Technologies" by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). This bilateral workshop brings together leading researchers in the science of light (optics and photonics), from US and Taiwan. Via talks, discussions and planned lab visits, the event provides a platform for scientists from both sides to share latest research results, to have face-to-face discussions and to instigate collaboration. The event is organized by the US National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) of Taiwan. The workshop takes place in Taipei, Taiwan from May 31 to June 1. Optics and photonics is one of the most active and fast developing fields in engineering and science. Technological advances in optics and photonics have significantly advanced a broad range of areas from communication, medicine, aerospace to advanced manufacturing. Both US and Taiwan governments and industry have invested significantly in optics and photonics research. In particular, with the world largest foundries like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Corporation (TSMC), Taiwan is a powerhouse of semiconductor industry, which has long been the engine of optics and photonics research. As technological breakthroughs continues to be achieved and new topics of optics and photonics, such as silicon photonics, plasmonics, new lasers and 2D materials, continue to emerge, multilateral collaborations between nations are becoming more and more important to the development and dissemination of research. This workshop and event will stimulate bilateral collaboration in photonics research between researchers in Taiwan and United States. Through face to face discussion and laboratory tours, information of the latest development in photonics research, research infrastructures and facility will be exchanged. Potential bilateral outreach possibility will also be discussed.

2015年被联合国教育、科学及文化组织(教科文组织)定为“国际光和基于光的技术年”。这个双边研讨会汇集了来自美国和台湾的光科学(光学和光子学)领域的顶尖研究人员。通过会谈、讨论和计划中的实验室访问，此次活动为双方科学家提供了一个分享最新研究成果、面对面讨论和促进合作的平台。这次活动是由美国国家科学基金会(NSF)和台湾科技部(MOST)组织的。研讨会于5月31日至6月1日在台湾台北举行。光学和光子学是工程和科学领域中最活跃和发展最快的领域之一。光学和光子学的技术进步显著推动了从通信、医学、航空航天到先进制造的广泛领域的发展。美国和台湾的政府和工业界都在光学和光子学研究方面投入了大量资金。特别是，台湾拥有台积电(TSMC)等世界上最大的晶圆代工厂，是半导体行业的强国，长期以来一直是光学和光子学研究的引擎。随着技术不断取得突破，光学和光子学的新课题不断涌现，如硅光子学、等离子激元、新激光和2D材料，国家之间的多边合作对研究的发展和传播变得越来越重要。这次研讨会和活动将促进台湾和美国研究人员在光子学研究方面的双边合作。通过面对面的讨论和实验室参观，将交流有关光子学研究、研究基础设施和设施的最新发展信息。还将讨论潜在的双边外联可能性。
