Basic and applied research in the field of plasma
generation at low and atmospheric pressure, plasma diagnostics, and plasma
implementation with particular emphasis on plasma-assisted deposition, surface
cleaning, and environmental processes; special efforts are being devoted to
the development of novel pulsed power plasma sources. Collaborations exist
with industry (power supply and vacuum deposition system manufacturers) and,
internally, with the Laboratory for the Study of Electron-Driven Processes and
the Center for Environmental Systems.
