Planning Grant for joining the I/UCRC for Lasers and Plasmas for Advanced Manufacturing 1134835 University of Texas at Dallas; Matthew Goeckner 1134813 North Carolina State University; Steven Shannon The University of Texas at Dallas and North Carolina State University are seeking to join the existing Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) for Lasers and Plasmas for Advanced Manufacturing. The center currently consists of the University of Virginia (lead), with the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor, the Southern Methodist University, and the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign as research partners. The University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) and North Carolina State University (NCSU) present a synergistic effort that combines plasma chemistry, plasma-surface interactions, and plasma source development to enhance the scientific understanding of these systems, formulate pathways for industrial application that are founded in basic scientific understanding, and demonstrate the capabilities of intelligently designed next generation plasma devices to enable high technology precision manufacturing in the United States. This scientific effort is complimented by the broad and substantial outreach efforts of the investigators and their institutions. This integrated effort will compliment the current activities of the existing I/UCRC and broaden the scope of the center to include a class of plasma systems poised to make substantial contributions to future manufacturing efforts. The addition of UTD and NCSU to the existing I/UCRC will fill a void in the capabilities of the U.S., providing a leadership role in the development of the fundamental science of low temperature plasmas. Related educational activities will include the traditional, and currently ongoing, outreach, educational, and scientific endeavors that engage students from high school to graduate level at both universities. Further, as both the Dallas and Raleigh-Durham areas have historically been regions in which low-temperature plasmas are widely used in industry, the consortium will be able to easily provide educational activities for working professions. These activities will be further enhanced by the presently established and successful outreach programs and distance education programs at both UTD and NCSU that will accelerate the accessibility of these programs to this broad industrial base.

德克萨斯大学达拉斯分校1134835；北卡罗来纳州立大学马修·戈克纳1134813；达拉斯得克萨斯大学和北卡罗来纳州立大学的Steven Shannon正在寻求加入现有的先进制造激光和等离子产业/大学合作研究中心(I/UCRC)。该中心目前由弗吉尼亚大学(LEAD)组成，密歇根大学安娜堡分校、南方卫理公会大学和伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳香槟分校为研究合作伙伴。德克萨斯大学达拉斯分校(UTD)和北卡罗来纳州立大学(NCSU)展示了一项将等离子体化学、等离子体表面相互作用和等离子体源开发相结合的协同努力，以增强对这些系统的科学理解，制定建立在基本科学理解基础上的工业应用途径，并展示智能设计的下一代等离子体设备实现美国高科技精密制造的能力。这一科学努力得到了调查人员及其机构广泛和实质性的外展努力的赞扬。这一综合努力将补充现有I/UCRC目前的活动，并扩大该中心的范围，将一类准备为未来制造努力做出重大贡献的等离子系统包括在内。UTD和NCSU加入现有的I/UCRC将填补美国能力的空白，在低温等离子体基础科学的发展中发挥领导作用。相关的教育活动将包括传统的和目前正在进行的外展、教育和科学努力，使两所大学从高中到研究生的学生都参与进来。此外，由于达拉斯和罗利-达勒姆地区历史上都是低温等离子体在工业中广泛使用的地区，该联盟将能够轻松地为在职人士提供教育活动。UTD和NCSU目前建立的成功的外展计划和远程教育计划将进一步加强这些活动，这些计划将加快这些计划进入这个广泛的工业基础的机会。
