In this white paper we present a suite of plasma processing tools for FA with the aim of providing practical guidance as to their suitability for different tasks. One way of uncovering a fault and ...

Atmospheric pressure plasma processing and machining represent a transformative suite of techniques that utilise ionised gases, or plasmas, at ambient pressures to perform high-precision material ...

A novel technique known as in-situ plasma processing is helping scientists get more neutrons and better data for their experiments at the Spallation Neutron Source at the Department of Energy's Oak ...

Available to watch now, IUVSTA, Hiden Analytical, MKS Instruments, Agilent Vacuum Technologies and Pfeiffer Vacuum explores the current trend and challenges in the manufacturing processes of advanced ...

A single-step, plasma-enhanced catalytic process to convert sulfur dioxide to pure sulfur from tail gas streams may provide a promising, more environmentally-friendly alternative to current multistage ...

Thin films are layers of materials with a thickness ranging from a few nanometers to a few micrometers. They are used in a variety of applications such as coatings for cutting tools, solar cells, ...

Supersonic Atmospheric Plasma Spraying (SAPS) is a commonly used technique in thermal spraying. Compared with other techniques, SAPS has the advantages of being high speed with low oxidation of ...

Using various types of plasma that confer different surface chemistries, including cleaning plasmas for targeted removal of chemical contaminants, 3-dimensional treatment is directed only at exposed ...
