Aim & Scope
The International Symposium on Laser Precision Microfabrication (LPM) conference, started by a group of laser processing pioneers and scientists in 2000, has been the flag-ship conference organized and managed by the Japan Laser Processing Society. Since its inception, LPM has grown into a premier international platform for advancing research and innovation in laser-based microfabrication and related technologies.
The aim of the LPM conference is to provide a forum for discussion of fundamental aspects of laser-matter interaction, the state-of-the-art of laser materials processing, and topics for the next generation with scientist, end users, and laser manufacturers. We expect that LPM2026 will play an important role not only in understanding fundamental knowledge of laser precision microfabrication but also in forecasting future lasers and the market.
