👉 Plasma engineering is the scientific and technological discipline focused on the study, manipulation, and application of ionized gases, or plasmas. Plasmas are often referred to as the fourth state of matter, existing alongside solid, liquid, and gaseous states. In plasma engineering, researchers and engineers work to create, control, and utilize plasmas for various applications, including semiconductor manufacturing, fusion energy research, lighting (such as plasma TVs and neon signs), and medical treatments. This involves understanding plasma physics, developing specialized equipment like plasma sources and diagnostics tools, and optimizing plasma properties for specific uses. Plasma engineering plays a crucial role in advancing technologies that require high-energy, reactive environments, pushing the boundaries of materials science, energy production, and beyond.
