About Light Conference Week 2023
Highlighted by UNESCO’s International Day of Light, 2023 Light Conference Week (in person conference) is hosted by CIOMP - Chinese Academy of Sciences, IEEE Photonics Society and China Science Daily, and organized by Light Publishing Group, ScienceNet.cn and iCANX, taking place from August 11-16, 2023 in Changchun, China.
2023 Light Conference week consists of Plenary session, Ceremony of Wang Daheng’s Optical Prizes and Light 10 Social Influence Events, Light Doctoral League, invited sessions on Laser manufacturing and processing/Micro and nano photonics/Optical imaging and metrology/Optical communications and devices/Next-generation optics-related technologies/Terahertz technologies. With 2023 Light Conference week, we hope to resonate with UNESCO’s International Day of Light, contribute to the wellbeing of optics community, highlight the frontiers of optics and photonics, showcase the industrial advances in optoelectronics, and incubate a platform for optical innovations and talents.

Fiber endoscopy using structured light, 3D-printed holograms, and deep learning for minimally invasive lensless imaging
Juergen Czarske
TU Dresden, Germany
Light has the potential to recognize the origins of diseases, enabling to prevent them, or to cure them early and gently. The early diagnosis is the key to improve the survival rate of patients. Endoscopy plays an important role in diagnosis as it offers keyhole access. However, conventionally it takes several hours to a few days for the surgeon to know the results. Optical histopathology offers real-time intraoperative diagnosis without tissue removal.
We present lensless imaging with multicore fibers using deep neural networks and wavefront shaping with femtosecond laser-based 3D printed holograms. The peculiar features are 3D imaging without pixelation and tiny diameters of only a few 100 microns, crucial for neurosurgery. The well-trained resolution enhancement network helps improving tumor recognition rate. It is promising for minimally invasive intraoperative diagnostics of cancer in neurosurgery using virtual staining.
The use of multi-core fibers as programmable wavefront shaping with deep learning for eliminating artifacts is attractive for the emerging label-free tomography of rotated cells and organoids, derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells. The computational lensless multi-core fiber endoscopy paves the way for minimally invasive diagnostics in biomedicine.
