Another focus of the group is the use of a toroidal magnetic field for plasma confinement and control, which is critical for tailoring material properties.

The Green Plasma Technology Group, under Dr. Nguyen Nhat Linh, specializes in non-thermal plasma applications for environmental and material science. We utilize room-temperature plasma to achieve high-efficiency synthesis of nanomaterials and the versatile treatment of various waste types by generating hydroxyl and other radicals, which involve high-energy electrons interacting with water and O2 in the solution and in the ambient air. This versatile technology allows for the effective decomposition of stubborn contaminants and the creation of novel catalytic/plasmonic materials, all while operating at ambient conditions for reduced energy consumption.

Dr. Nguyen Thi Mai leads the Atomic-Scale Plasma-Material Simulation Group, focusing on the computational exploration of matter at the subnanometer scale. We employ state-of-the-art simulations to investigate how plasma particles interact with materials at the most fundamental, atomic level. A key objective is to model and understand the complex reaction kinetics that unfold following these interactions. Our goal is to predict and control material evolution in plasma environments, bridging the gap between atomic-scale phenomena and macroscopic material properties.

The Intelligent Plasma & Materials Informatics Lab, directed by Prof. Nguyen Thanh Tung, bridges the gap between advanced materials synthesis and data science. Our research focuses on developing intelligent, automated plasma systems for high-throughput generation of FAIR data. By coupling these robotic experiments with AI-driven analytics, we aim to unravel complex process-structure-property relationships. This data-centric approach is pivotal for establishing a foundational database and accelerating the development of new materials for various technological applications.
