The lab uses lasers to measure plasma and explores how to control reactions.

AboutAbout the lab
Measuring plasma and controlling reactions
The Ionization Reaction Engineering Lab studies the fabrication of new materials and devices using discharge plasma and lasers, as well as the measurement and control of that process.
The lab believes that complex phenomena occurring at the atomic and molecular level must be measured immediately and actively controlled.
Specifically, the lab conducts laser measurement of various parameters in reactive plasma and develops methods for measuring strain and junction temperature in nitride semiconductor devices.
Believing that new discoveries lie hidden at the boundaries between academic fields, the lab values a proactive and self-driven approach.
Key terms
- Plasma
- A state in which the atoms or molecules of a gas are separated into electrons and ions. It can be produced by electric discharge or lasers.
- EUV
- Extreme ultraviolet light. A type of ultraviolet light with a very short wavelength.
- Laser ablation
- A phenomenon in which intense laser light is directed at a material and ejects material from its surface. The ejected material becomes plasma.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab studies how to measure and control the process of making materials and devices using laser and discharge plasma. It also uses laser measurement methods to investigate the state of particles in plasma.
*Illustrative imageMeasurement of EUV Plasma and Hydrogen Plasma
This research uses laser measurement methods to measure the parameters of hydrogen plasma photoexcited by laser-produced EUV plasma, with the aim of controlling reactions. The motion of particles is also investigated.
*Illustrative imageFabrication of Porous SiO2 Thin Films
This research produces low-k porous SiO2 thin films by laser ablation using a deep ultraviolet laser. It also covers the generation of nanoparticles.
*Illustrative imageMeasurement and Control of Ablation Plasma
This research uses laser measurement methods to measure particles in the plasma produced by laser ablation, with the aim of controlling reactions. The generation of nanoparticles and the motion of particles are also studied.
*Illustrative imageElectric Field Environments for Preserving Freshness
This research creates optimal electric field environments for freshness-preservation systems for agricultural, marine, and livestock products. It uses electric field analysis simulation and targets the cold chain for fresh food.
