Description
The Research Group Plasma Technology (RUPT) focuses on the physics and chemistry of non-thermal plasmas, and in particular on the applications of such 'cold' plasmas. Next to the development of innovative plasma sources for environmental, surface engineering, biomedical and medical applications, part of the research involves fundamental studies on underwater plasmas, plasma-surface interactions and microplasmas.
