Dear Colleagues,1st International School and Conference "Saint Petersburg OPEN 2014" on Optoelectronics, Photonics, Engineering and Nanostructures was held on March 25 – 27, 2014 at St. Petersburg Academic University – Nanotechnology Research and Education Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The School and Conference included a series of invited talks given by leading professors with the aim to introduce young scientists with actual problems and major advances in physics and technology. The keynote speakers were:Mikhail Glazov (Ioffe Physico-Technical Institute RAS, Russia)Vladimir Dubrovskii (Saint Petersburg Academic University RAS, Russia)Alexey Kavokin (University of Southampton, United Kingdom and St. Petersburg State University, Russia)Vladimir Korenev (Ioffe Physico-Technical Institute RAS, Russia)Sergey Kukushkin (Institute of Problems of Mechanical Engineering RAS, Russia)Nikita Pikhtin (Ioffe Physico-Technical Institute RAS, Russia and "Elfolum" Ltd., Russia)Dmitry Firsov (Saint Petersburg State Polytechnical University, Russia)During the poster session all undergraduate and graduate students attending the conference presented their works. Sufficiently large number of participants with more than 160 student attendees from all over the world allowed the Conference to provide a fertile ground for the fruitful discussions between the young scientists as well as to become a perfect platform for the valuable discussions between student authors and highly experienced scientists. The best student papers, which were selected by the Program Committee and by the invited speakers basing on the theses and their poster presentation, were awarded with diplomas of the conference – see the photos.This year's School and Conference is supported by SPIE (The International Society for Optics and Photonics), OSA (The Optical Society), St. Petersburg State Polytechnical University and by Skolkovo Foundation. It is a continuation of the annual schools and seminars for youth on topical problems of physics and technology that is organized by the Academic University since 2009.
