The Photonics Society a brief history
16-Jul-093
1977 The Quantum Electronics Council (QEC) became the Quantum Electronics and Applications Society (QEAS)
1985 The name was changed in Lasers and Electro-Optics Society (LEOS). In that period, LEOS membership increased by more than 65 percent.
2007 LEOS Society celebrates is 30th Anniversary
30 March 2009 The name was changed in Photonics Society
