General objectives of the project

1. Elaboration of new plasma systems for material processing (atmospheric pressure, combined):
a) realization and demonstration of a plasma system based on atmospheric discharge for deposition / cleaning of surfaces;
b) assessment of the synergistic effect of combined plasma techniques at atmospheric pressure (laser plasma an RF palsma) in deposition of improved quality thin films ant etching.

2. Functionalization of surfaces / deposition of thin polymeric films requied for adhesivity control and selective interaction:
a) to promote selective chemical interactions;
b) controlled adherence.

3. Plasma stimulated growth of nanostructured materials on catalytic nano-porous templates and powder production and treatment in plasma:
a) develop a process and explain whether Plasma Enchanced CVD is beneficial for growth (rate, nanostrctured properties) as compared with CVD only;
b) develop an assess plasma systems for powder production / powder functionalization.

4. Plasma process for stimuli / responsive filtration system based on polymeric nuclear track membranes:
a) imagine and assess the effectiveness of a plasma solution for modifying porous materials, like track membranes, inside channels with small dimension, even in the sub-micrometric range .
