2022 Plasma Processing Science Gordon Research Conference and Gordon Research Seminar
Abstract
This award will provide financial support for young researchers (graduate students and post-doctoral researchers) so that they can attend the 2022 Gordon Research Conference on Plasma Processing Science, to be held July 24-29, 2022, at the Proctor Academy in Andover NH. This conference series has been exceptionally successful at bringing together, over the years, experts in all areas related to plasma processing science, including theory, experiments and advanced characterization. The 2022 conference will be titled Plasmas and Their Interaction with Matter to highlight the common thread among the many scientific issues and potential applications currently investigated by the community. Plasmas are now being placed in contact of inorganic materials, polymers, organic tissues, liquids, aerosols, catalysts beds, creating unique processing environments and representing an area of both need and opportunity for fundamental scientific advances. Areas of particular interest to the Army Research Office include plasma catalysis and plasma-liquid interaction, recognized by the plasma community as exciting growth areas. The Gordon Research Conference will serve as a meeting point in this highly inter-disciplinary and cross-disciplinary field, bringing together researchers at all career stages, from leaders in the field to junior investigators and graduate students. This conference encourages the presenters to share and discuss their most recent results, and provides ample time for constructive discussions among the participants. The Gordon Research Seminar will take place immediately before the conference. This day-long meeting, titled Investigating Multiphase and Multiscale Plasma-Material Interactions , will be fully organized by students and postdocs, and will include a mentoring session designed to provide different career perspectives to the participants. Statement of objective: The objective of the GRC-PPS and of the related Gordon Research Seminar is to advance the broad field of plasma processing science by providing both an optimal environment for scientific discussion and unique opportunities for scientific growth to its participants, at all career stages.
