The Kranzberg chair in plazma engineering

Incumbent: Prof. Hagit Messser

The objective of the Kranzberg Chair is to encourage research on understanding and utilizing the fourth state of matter - plasma. Plasma is a gas which is ionized, i.e. electrons have been separated from some or all of the ions or molecules in the gas so that they can move independently through the gas, converting the gas from an insulator to a conductor. Currently research is being conducted to utilize plasma to deposit thin films and coatings for extending the life of cutting tools and lowering the cost of flat panel displays, generating nano-particles, stabilizing the orbit of spacecraft, and disinfecting water
