for seminal contributions in the fields of octave-spanning lasers, frequency comb technology, and high repetition-rate ultrafast semiconductor disc lasers.

The award will be presented during the International Year of Light Plenary Session and Society Awards Ceremony on Wednesday, 13. May 2015 18:30–20:30, in the Grand Ballroom, San Jose Conventon Center during CLEO USA 2015.

The Charles Hard Townes Award award was established in 1980 to honor Charles Hard Townes, whose pioneering contributions to masers and lasers led to the development of the field of quantum electronics. It is given to an individual or a group of individuals for outstanding experimental or theoretical work, discovery or invention in the field of quantum electronics. Bell Laboratories originally endowed the award. Hewlett-Packard, The Perkin Fund, and students and colleagues of Charles Townes contributed generously in a Townes Award Endowment Campaign.
