Broom in the sky. Plasma propulsion to remove debris from orbit. #tech
There are 15,000 traceable objects orbiting earth representing 6000 tons of material. There is now a real need for debris removal. The broom in the sky. This space craft sweeps debris using a plasma generated ion beam. The paper shows detailed modelling of the process showing problems like back-scattering of ions and charging of the …

The Wheatstone bridge and related matters, like what is your greatest achievement in life?
Wheatstone (1802-1875) is a famous UK physicist. He is best known for the Wheatstone bridge a device to measure resistance. Using an AC or RF voltage the bridge can also measure impedance. It is here that my story begins. Impedance is the ratio of voltage to current flowing in a device. When current is impeded …
The hidden champion #plasma #tech
Plasma is the ‘hidden champion’ of industrial innovation – Prof. Christian Oehr In a recent inteview with Professor Christian Oehr, head of the interfacial engineering and materials science department at Fraunhofer IGB in Stuttgart, Germany, refers to plasma as the hidden champion. When asked what a plasma is, Prof. Oehr explained that Plasma is created …

Figure 5: FIBSEM micrographs of Mo(1.5%):ZnO films deposited at a sputtering pressure of 1 × 10−2 mbar and at a substrate temperature of 473 K. I looked at publications in the Indian Journal. Material Science. Generally, papers on plasma processes were quite rare. This is one of the few interesting one using RF plasma sputtering. The application was …
Applying network analysis to plasma data. Graphing complex reactions. Learning from analysis of the internet scientist in the area of plasma physics have realized the importance of network graphing. #plasma #maths
Learning from analysis of the internet scientist in the area of plasma physics have realised the importance of network graphing. These graphs outline the linear processes that can occur like the subway map of a line. However when many competing paths exist the maps the maps can begin to look like the London underground. In …
Tin vapor is the next big thing in light sources and an evolving new plasma application. These source produce light at the extreme end of the UV spectrum to make patterns at a few nano meters. #plasma #semiconductor
Discharge sources in tin vapor are receiving attention as a candidate for extreme ultraviolet light sources for application in semiconductor lithography, because of their favorable spectrum near 13.5 nm, which is 30 times smaller than the wavelength of visible light. In an 2005 paper, the ASML EUV laboratory studied time-resolved pinhole imaging in the EUV …
