Category talk:Optical physicists

Laser researchers are a subset of the larger group "optical physicists." However, in some cases, such as Lamb, Hansch, and others, contributions have been made to both laser research and optics, or optical physics. In that case it should be OK to have them listed in both categories (singlephoton).
