La óptica en Colombia: introducción al número especial

Abstract

This special issue of Optica Pura y Aplicada (OPA) on Optics in Colombia compiles peer-reviewed articles by optics and photonics researchers from Colombia. The call for papers was made in May 2021 through a call published on the page of the Sociedad Red Colombiana de Óptica and was open to contributions from professionals with affiliation in Colombia in all related areas. Additionally, authors from the 2021 National Optics Meeting and the Andean and Caribbean Conference on Optics and its Applications were invited to send their contributions to this special issue. The result is a good number of contributions published in this special issue of OPA with articles by authors from different institutions in Colombia demonstrating a consolidation of optics in the country. © Sociedad Española de Óptica
