New method for investigating plasma
Lab Exchange (€2,000)

Golda investigates plasmas - ionized gases, which among other things are used for the treatment of surfaces - using emission spectroscopy. With a new method, the physicist wants to observe the chemical processes at the interface between plasmas and surfaces "live". Important insights into its development should be gained during a research stay at the University of Minnesota, supervised by Professor Peter J. Bruggeman as an expert in atmospheric pressure plasmas. Among other benefits, a comprehensive understanding of the plasma processes could in future help to produce C02-neutral fuel.
