Interaction Plasma/Surface and Microplasmas
The core activities of this group focus on detailed studies of reactive plasmas and their interaction with complex media, surfaces, and aerosols.
The group uses a multi-frontal approach involving numerical modeling, advanced experimental diagnostics, and material characterization methods. These allow for performing macroscopic as well as microscopic characterizations of the plasmas investigated. This combined approach has the main objective of developing and optimizing new plasma-based processes which are suitable for different applications spanning from atomic sources to hydrogen storage and producing novel high-impact materials such as h-BN, nanodiamonds and metal oxides.
As a testament to the group’s continued effort to reach extreme reactive conditions, microplasmas have emerged as a strong asset of the group with the development of new microplasma sources such as micro-hollow cathode discharge, microwave microplasma torch and ns-DC pulsed microplasma.
The group is currently working on a wide range of discharge conditions, extending from very low pressure plasmas such as ECR discharges to atmospheric pressure plasmas.
