Fourth NEMO newsletter

Welcome to the fourth issue of the newsletter of the Network of Excellence on Micro-Optics (NEMO). Micro-optics is a growing field and the influence on other branches is increasing. This requires innovative solutions for micro-optical components and their production and of course, know-how is essential to keep pace with market developments. NEMO offers the concentrated know-how through its partners and the European experts behind, which can be accessed through NEMO’s Industrial User Club (IUC). Interesting news about the IUC as a special instrument for the support of industry and its members can be found in this newsletter. Technology breakthroughs and results from network partners as well as partner portraits can be obtained from the rubric “NEMO inside”.
