REPLAY OPTICA Online Industry Meeting discussing Advanced Thin Films April 28th 2026

This recording starts with a promo of other upcoming events in the Optica Calendar. The session starts 3 minutes 30 in. Thin films are not short of ambition. The question is whether industry can manufacture that ambition at scale. That is the point of this deep-tech Optica Online Industry Meeting. Not just what thin films can do in the lab. What can actually be monitored, measured, repeated, integrated, and delivered in production? This 90-minute LIVE discussion was FREE to attend thanks to the generous support from OEwaves. The discussion will focus on the bottlenecks: process monitoring at scale, complex multilayers, metrology, deposition equipment, design for manufacturability, and where the value chain still needs tighter coordination. We are joined by: Darren Berns, CTO, IDEX Corporation Optical Technologies Carlo Kosik Williams, Director, Thin Films & Coatings, Corning Incorporated Stefaan Vandendriessche, Senior Director, Laser Optics Business Group, Edmund Optics Tatiana Amochkina, CEO, OTF Studio Marcel Marxer, Technical Sales Specialist, RhySearch Adrian Tschanz, CEO, Opcos AG Dr. Jani Holopainen, R&D Process Engineer, Optics, Bühler Group Taras Lisouski, Head of Business Development, EssentOptics Europe. Moderated by Jose Pozo, Chief Technology Officer, Optica, and Olga Raz, Director of Technology for Optics and Optical Systems, Optica.
