Between September 29 and October 3, 2024, SPIE UFSC member Tiago Junior de Bortoli participated in the SPIE Photomask Technology + Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography conference in Monterey, California. The meeting was attended by several companies in the sector and provided an exceptional opportunity for the participants to exchange knowledge.
As part of the conference, our group member had the opportunity to participate in a Special Event Student-Mentor Luncheon. The event provided direct exchanges with SPIE members who have successful careers in the field. The exchange of knowledge was precious and provided great career ideas.
In addition, our member received financial assistance from SPIE to participate in the event, which allowed him to participate for more days and to make the most of the experience.
On 11/13/2024, the SPIE/OPTICA UFSC group met for a social get-together event.

On October 31th, the experimental class for architecture and civil engineering was held, as it is every six months. This semester, we had an exceptionally large turnout, with a total of 80 students in attendance. During the class, we conducted various experiments with different types of light bulbs, diffraction gratings, and mirrors to demonstrate light reflection and refraction. We also used polarizers, among other experiments, to explore the properties of light. We extend our gratitude to everyone who contributed to making this class possible, and we also thank all the students for their participation.
