Just as the discovery of fire sparked the dawn of human civilization, plasma has been a critical driver of modern industrial revolutions. As an indispensable material and technology, plasma is essential in key industries such as semiconductors and display manufacturing. Our lab is committed to harnessing plasma’s immense potential to bring about industrial innovation and to pioneer groundbreaking research.
Among our diverse research interests, intermediate-pressure plasma stands out for its exceptionally high potential. This technology promises to deliver transformative solutions across a wide range of fields—from energy and environmental sectors to healthcare and food industries—enabling a true paradigm shift. Indeed, recent societal challenges have already begun to see the benefits of low-temperature plasma applications.
To pioneer new plasma applications, our lab carries out a wide range of research, including fundamental plasma studies, plasma source development, and advanced diagnostic techniques. We are also exploring the basic principles of plasma ion wind, aiming to develop it into a key technology for aerospace. We wholeheartedly welcome anyone interested in collaborating or learning more about our research into low-temperature plasma. Join us in shaping the future through plasma-driven innovation!
