Welcome to OMN 2027

Premier International Forum on Micro & Nano Photonics

The International Conference on Optical MEMS and Nanophotonics (OMN) is the flagship international conference dedicated to micro-optical electro-mechanical systems and nano-scale photonic phenomena.

OMN held its first edition in 1996 and has established itself as the flagship conference in the field for the past 30 years.

In June 2027, Stockholm welcomes the international scientific community to foster interdisciplinary discussions, unveil groundbreaking research, and establish strategic collaborations across optics, MEMS, and materials science.
