The proposed new site of the Laser and Plasma for Advanced Manufacturing (LPAM) I/UCRC at North Carolina State University (NCSU) intends to deepen the understanding of plasma systems and how they interact with their environment, address critical areas such as new source design, validation of predictive models for virtual design, dynamic chemistry control for non-equilibrium processes, and enable advanced diagnostics. These challenges will be addressed by focusing on the basic science behind three critical areas: 1) interaction between plasmas and applied fields, 2) interaction between plasmas and surfaces, and 3) the underlying science that enable advanced diagnostics. This integrated effort will complement the current activities of the Lasers and Plasmas for Advanced Manufacturing 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.Low temperature plasma (LTP) science provides a base technology on which many modern industries exist. The NCSU site of LPAM?s research efforts target expansion of needed application inspired fundamental research in this area to support industry competitiveness. Industries that utilize LTPs for manufacturing are experiencing a shortfall in manpower for the design, development, and operation of these devices. As plasma process expands into new growth industries this demand will increase. By providing an environment that focuses on fundamental understanding of these systems, combined with industry engagement through collaborative research, industry residencies, and co-operative opportunities, we will fill a manpower void and accelerate the growth of low cost, repeatable manufacturing solutions for the domestic high-tech industry.

拟议中的激光和等离子体先进制造（LPAM）I/UCRC在北卡罗来纳州州立大学（NCSU）的新地点旨在加深对等离子体系统及其如何与环境相互作用的理解，解决关键领域，如新的源设计，虚拟设计预测模型的验证，非平衡过程的动态化学控制，并实现先进的诊断。这些挑战将通过关注三个关键领域背后的基础科学来解决：1）等离子体与应用场之间的相互作用，2）等离子体与表面之间的相互作用，以及3）使先进诊断成为可能的基础科学。这一综合努力将补充先进制造I/UCRC的激光和等离子体的当前活动，并扩大该中心的范围，包括一类等离子体系统准备作出实质性贡献，未来的制造努力。低温等离子体（LTP）科学提供了一个基础技术，许多现代工业存在。LPAM的NCSU网站？的研究工作的目标是扩大所需的应用启发基础研究在这一领域，以支持行业的竞争力。利用LTP进行制造的行业正在经历这些设备的设计、开发和操作的人力短缺。随着等离子体工艺扩展到新的增长行业，这一需求将增加。通过提供一个专注于对这些系统的基本理解的环境，结合通过合作研究，行业驻地和合作机会的行业参与，我们将填补人力空白，并加速国内高科技行业低成本，可重复制造解决方案的增长。
