Scientific Achievement Award is given to recognize an exceptional
single scientific contribution that has had a significant impact in
the field of lasers and electro-optics in the past 10 years. It may
be given to an individual or to a group for a single contribution of
significant work in the field. No candidate shall have previously received
a major IEEE award for the same work. Candidates need not be members
of the IEEE or LEOS.
The IEEE/LEOS Engineering Achievement Award is given
to recognize an exceptional engineering contribution that has had a
significant impact on the development of laser or electro-optic technology
within the past 10 years. It may be given to an individual or to a group
for a single contribution of significant work in the field. No candidate
shall have previously received a major IEEE award for the same work.
Candidates need not be members of the IEEE or LEOS.
The IEEE/LEOS Aron Kressel Award is given to recognize
those individuals who have made important contributions to opto-electronics
device technology. The device technology cited is to have had a significant
impact on their applications in major practical systems. The intent
is to recognize key contributors to the field for developments of critical
components, which lead to the development of systems enabling major
new services or capabilities. These achievements should have been accomplished
in a prior time frame sufficient to permit evaluation of their last
impact. The work cited could have appeared in the form of publications,
patents, products, or simply general recognition by the professional
community that the individual cited is the agreed upon originator of
the advance upon which the award decision is based. The award may be
given to an individual or group, up to three in number.
The IEEE/LEOS Distinguished Service Award was established
to recognize an exceptional individual contribution of service which
has had significant benefit to the membership of the IEEE Lasers and
Electro-Optics Society as a whole. This level of service will often
include serving the Society in several capacities or in positions of
significant responsibility. Candidates should be members of LEOS.
