In the two decades since its formation in 1990, just four years after the creation of CREOL, then called the Center for Research in Electro-Optics and Lasers, LPL has grown to be a major laboratory within the constellation of optics, photonics and laser laboratories, and centers surrounding the College of Optics &amp; Photonics at UCF. LPL is a founding laboratory within the new Townes Laser Institute, established in 2007 as a State Center of Excellence in next-generation laser technologies and their applications.<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-46f0e960 elementor-widget__width-initial animated-slow elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"46f0e960\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;motion_fx_motion_fx_scrolling&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:&quot;700&quot;,&quot;motion_fx_devices&quot;:[&quot;desktop&quot;,&quot;tablet&quot;,&quot;mobile&quot;]}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Although LPL\u2019s scope of activities has progressively expanded over the years, its mission has remained the same.

Our primary products are the students we graduate with Masters and Doctoral degrees and the new science and technologies we create. We are organized into a number of research teams, laboratories and major facilities, and have established many formal and informal collaborations across the globe.
