Non-technical DescriptionPlasmas - a state of matter consisting of a collection of electrically neutral atoms, molecules, as well as partially or fully ionized particles - make up more than 90% of the observable universe and underpin several high-tech manufacturing industries. Familiar forms of plasma include the sun, stars, lightning, neon signs, television screen displays, welder?s torches, and rocket exhaust. This project will improve understanding of plasma processes and interactions. This knowledge will be used to develop new technologies for aerospace, manufacturing, medicine, agriculture, and food safety. The research includes prediction and preparation of novel materials that have unique electronic, optical, mechanical, and biological properties. Applications include prosthetics and plant seed and food disinfection. The project will share resources and leverage partnerships among Alabama institutions of higher learning and industries as well as establish national and international collaborations to strengthen the research capacity and to build and train an inclusive workforce in plasma science and technology.Technical DescriptionThis project will combine experimental, theoretical, and computational approaches to understand, predict, and control low temperature plasma (LTP) processes and properties. The goal is to improve understanding of plasma kinetics, collective processes such as turbulence and self-organization, and plasma interactions with solid, liquid, biomaterials, as well as plant seeds and food. Kinetic and fluid descriptions of the LTP constituents in space, laboratory, and industrial plasma and diagnostics to measure plasma properties in LTP far from equilibrium will be developed. For collective processes, waves, instabilities, nonlinear processes, turbulence, and self-organization in LTP will be modeled and efficient numerical algorithms for collective effects that influence microwave, THz, and laser-produced plasma will be developed. The research on interactions will focus on large-area deposition of novel super-hard structures and understanding plasma interactions with biomaterials. CPU2AL will facilitate plasma science and technology related programs that reach all levels of education. These include: faculty, postdoc, and student exchanges among all participating institutions, industry internships, summer undergraduate research programs with international opportunities, cross-institutional courses, workshops and training sessions for industry workers, and open houses with student poster and K-12 teacher training sessions.

等离子体——一种由电中性原子、分子以及部分或完全电离的粒子组成的物质状态——构成了可观测宇宙的90%以上，并支撑着几个高科技制造业。熟悉的等离子体形式包括太阳、星星、闪电、霓虹灯、电视屏幕显示器、电焊机？S火炬和火箭废气。这个项目将提高对等离子体过程和相互作用的理解。这些知识将用于开发航空航天、制造业、医药、农业和食品安全的新技术。该研究包括预测和制备具有独特的电子、光学、机械和生物特性的新型材料。应用包括假肢、植物种子和食品消毒。该项目将在阿拉巴马州的高等院校和行业机构之间共享资源和利用伙伴关系，并建立国家和国际合作，以加强研究能力，建立和培训一支具有包容性的等离子体科学和技术劳动力队伍。该项目将结合实验、理论和计算方法来理解、预测和控制低温等离子体（LTP）过程和特性。目标是提高对等离子体动力学的理解，集体过程，如湍流和自组织，等离子体与固体，液体，生物材料，以及植物种子和食物的相互作用。将发展空间、实验室和工业等离子体中LTP成分的动力学和流体描述，以及在远离平衡态的LTP中测量等离子体特性的诊断。对于集体过程，将对LTP中的波、不稳定性、非线性过程、湍流和自组织进行建模，并为影响微波、太赫兹和激光产生的等离子体的集体效应开发有效的数值算法。相互作用的研究将集中在新型超硬结构的大面积沉积和等离子体与生物材料的相互作用上。CPU2AL将促进等离子科学和技术相关的项目达到各级教育。这些活动包括：所有参与机构之间的教师、博士后和学生交流、行业实习、有国际机会的暑期本科生研究项目、跨机构课程、针对行业工作者的研讨会和培训课程，以及带有学生海报的开放日和K-12教师培训课程。
