We welcome you to Tampere, Finland to join us at the 30th International Semiconductor Laser Conference (ISLC 2026)!
The ISLC has a tradition of more than 50 years of bringing together specialists in the field of semiconductor lasers, amplifiers and LEDs. The conference is run in a single session format, providing an opportunity to all participants for fruitful discussions and networking. In addition, June is a great time to experience Tampere and the beautiful peace and quiet of the nature around it.
