Changes in the Boards of Opto−Electronics Review

The OPTO−ELECTRONICS REVIEW (O−ER) journal has achieved the significant world−wide recognition. The recei−ving of such a journal status has been possible due to the hard work and activities of the Board of Co−editors. One of themis professor J. Zieliński who has served the journal, as a Deputy Editor−in−Chief, from 1998. He has given unselfishly oftheir time. I wish to thank him for a job well done and simultaneously welcome him in the International Editorial AdvisoryBoard.

At the same time, I seize this opportunity to welcome professor Leszek R. Jaroszewicz who will be joining the positionof Deputy Editor−in−Chief. I am pleased that he agreed to serve in this capacity. Without any doubt he will be of a great helpin continuing to develop the O−ER journal at the international level.

Prof. Leszek R. Jaroszewicz, PhD, DSc, Eng, SPIE Fellow is director of the Institute ofTechnical Physics MUT. Since 1984 he has been engaged in the research of fibre−optic co−herent transmission, FOGs and interferometric and polarimetric optical fibre sensors inclu−ding wide scope of the fibre optic Sagnac interferometer’s applications as a sensor of a vari−ety of physical fields. At present, the main field of his interest is photonics technology appli−cation for sensors devices including: hybrid liquid crystal waveguide transducers, newtechno− logies of monocrystals and glasses manufacturing especially the oxide type, technol−ogies of advanced fibre optics, as well as photonic crystal fibre elements.

Up to now he has been the manager of nineteen national scientific projects, as well as theManagement Committee member for COST Action No. 299 and now for COST ActionTD1001. He is the author or co−author of more than 200 papers, 6 textbooks and 11 patents.Leszek R. Jaroszewicz is a regular reviewer for such scientific journals as: Optical Enginee−ring, IEEE: Journal of Lightwave Technology, Photonics Technology Letters, Transactions

on Instrumentation and Measurement, Sensors Journal, JOSA, and Measurement Science and Technology. He was a mem−ber of many Technical and Scientific Program Committees of many international and national conferences. He has also beenrewarded eleven times at international exhibitions of innovation, research and new technology, including 7 awards forFiber−Optic Rotational Seismograph.
