Dear ECIO Delegate,

Welcome to the 14th edition of the European Conference on Integrated Optics, which has been held biannually since the first ECIO in London in 1981, with the exception of 1991.

This year we have another exception: we move from odd to even years in order to avoid having ECIO and CLEO/Europe in the same year.

ECIO’08 is organised for the second time in the Netherlands. In 1995 it was or-ganised in Delft, partially by the same team that is now organising it in Eind-hoven.

Eindhoven is the high-tech center of the Netherlands, with many companies active in the fields of electronics, opto-electronics and telecommunications, including optical communication. The Eindhoven University of Technology with its CO-BRA Research Institute, which is organising ECIO’08, is the Dutch Academic Research Center in the field of Broadband Telecommunication Technologies and Semiconductor-based Photonic Integration.

Integrated Optics, or Photonic Integration as it is presently often called, goes through a number of important and exciting developments today.

Where for a long time commercial application has been restricted to lithium-ni-obate and passive dielectric components and circuits, today also more complex semiconductor-based photonic ICs are entering the more commercial application stage.

Further, important developments are taking place at the interface between CMOS technology and photonics. And in the field of optical communications a potential mass market is breaking through: Fibre-to-the-Home.

Important developments are also taking place in the field of nanophotonics, both in Photonic-Crystal and membrane based research, as well as in Plasmonics. All these developments will be covered by 21 eminent invited speakers, and in 80 selected oral and poster contributions.

This year, ECIO is combined with three other important events, which make visit-ing ECIO even more attractive: the Annual Meetvisit-ing of the ePIXnet Network of Excellence, with which ECIO has a joint workshop on Industrial Manufacturing and Business Models for Photonic ICs on Tuesday afternoon, the Optical Work-shop on Waveguide Theory and Numerical Modeling (OWTNM), with which ECIO has a joint session on Friday, and the international FIB Workshop.

We sincerely hope that you will enjoy ECIO’08 as a platform for updating your knowledge of the field, getting new ideas, and for building up or strengthening contacts with colleagues.
