Plasma-assisted deposition of chromium, fluorocarbon and chromium/carbon/fluorine films on glass, polymer and metal substrates
Sputter deposition of chromium (Cr), plasma polymerization of hexafluoroethane (C$\sb2$F$\sb6$), and plasma-assisted deposition of chromium/carbon/fluorine (Cr/C/F) thin films onto glass, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), and low carbon, cold rolled steel substrates has been studied. Depositions were …

Laser diagnostics of non-equilibrium plasmas
… sets itself the goal of studying two promising plasma reactors: a nanosecond repetitively pulsed (NRP) discharge and a microwave discharge. The NRP reactor has been investigated for the dissociation of CO2. The microwave discharge has been used for studies of vibrational energy loading into N2 , …

A study of nanostructured materials toward coronary artery stenting and DNA-based biosensing
… to re-obstruction triggered by host tissue. A plasma nanocoating (20-30 nm) has been investigated for its ability to improve patient tissue response. Nanocoatings were deposited using low temperature non-equilibrium plasma glow discharges. Nanocoatings were further modified with NH3+O2-based …

Dusty plasmas with high electron depletion
Dusty plasmas with high electron depletion occur in a wide range of astrophysical and laboratory environments and constitute a strongly non-equilibrium plasma regime that is still not fully understood. In particular, the interaction of nanodust with the plasma, the resulting electron depletion, and …

High voltage repetitive pulsed nanosecond discharges as a selective source of reactive species
… (RPND) technique as a means of creating a non-equilibrium plasma has already been demonstrated, many aspects of these discharges remain unclear. Amongst others, scaling laws as a function of electrical and ow parameters, the exact development characteristics of the dierent regimes …

On the reduction of metal oxides in non-equilibrium hydrogen plasmas
… (produced in a low-pressure microwave-frequency plasma) as a reducing agent for several metal oxide systems: copper oxide, molybdenum dioxide, titanium dioxide, and neodymium oxide. In situ thermogravimetric analysis is used to quantify the kinetics of the reduction reactions, while optical …

In pursuit of a chemical and phenomenological understanding of long-living atmospheric pressure water-based ball plasmoids
Atmospheric pressure water-based plasmoids have been studied for over a decade now, however a large amount of information regarding how the plasmoid is impacted by the parameters of the plasmoid generator and environment, and what chemical species are present in the plasmoid has not been reported. …

Multi-scale modeling of nanosecond plasma assisted combustion
… However, a comprehensive understanding of nonequilibrium plasma effects (in situ generation of reactive species and radicals combined with gas heating) on the combustion process is still lacking. Over the past decade, research efforts have advanced our knowledge of electron impact kinetics …
