The Center for Research
and Education in Optics and Lasers was founded in 1986 and is currently
recognized as a center for excellence regarding research in a wide range of
optics and photonics technologies. This collection contains conference
materials and correspondence related to CREOL and its first director M. J.
Soileau.
The
materials are written in English
Acquisition Information
University of Central Florida transferred these materials to the
University of Central Florida Libraries, Special Collections and University
Archives in 2005, 2007.
Processing History
The two series were put into folders. The folders
were then put into chronological order. Some of the folders contain
transparencies. These transparencies are carefully organized with tissue paper
placed between each individual sheet. Information on a 3.5" floppy disk was
printed and the disk discarded.
Access
The entire collection is open for research.

Biographical/Historical Note
Originally created as the State University System's Center of
Excellence in optical and laser sciences, the Center for Research in
Electro-Optics and Lasers (CREOL) was renamed in 1996 as the Center for
Research and Education in Optics and Lasers. Dr. M. J. Soileau became CREOL's
first director in 1987 followed by Dr. Eric Van Stryland in 1999. It is now a
research center within the College of Optics & Photonics presided over by
Dean Bahaa Saleh. CREOL provides education in optical science and engineering,
conducts scholarly fundamental and applied research and aids in the development
of Florida's technology-based industries.
Collection Scope and Content
This collection is divided into two series by type of document.
Series I: [Conference Materials, 1985-1998](b01) includes various conference
publications, papers, receipts, guides, PowerPoint printouts or transparencies,
and reports regarding conferences related to CREOL's research.
Series II: [M. J. Soileau's Correspondence, 1990-1999](b02) includes letters
and emails received and sent by M.J. Soileau regarding speakers visiting from
abroad, department meetings, plans, reference letters, travel, questionnaires
and regalia.
