Innovation, the heart of the reactor

Europe has a long-lasting tradition of technological competitiveness. As such, it lives from its knowledge and know-how. Innovation in photonics is one of the drivers of this competitiveness, producing knowledge and science, and transforming them into devices and applied systems.

But knowledge and know-how may not be enough: we must also make-knowing.

It is therefore not surprising that Photoniques' editorial committee dedicates this special issue to innovation through an overview of photonic devices and applications - that is innovation that hatches devices and makes them pass from the R&D laboratory to the industrial object, whether they are elementary components or complex systems. And then, besides a portait of James Clek Maxwell and a paper on the history of crystals and metamaterials, you will also discover an article dedicated to marketing for the photonics industry.

Bonne lecture !
