Plasma afterglows interacting with dust grains present a dynamic environment in which
negatively charged dust grains leaving the plasma bulk experience an environment with …

Particle charging in the afterglows of non-thermal plasmas typically take place in a non-
neutral space charge environment. We model the same by incorporating particle–ion …

Nonthermal plasma flow tube reactors are industrially scalable systems for the production of
nanocrystal (NC) based materials and coatings. One key advantage of nonthermal plasma …

Low-pressure nonthermal flowing plasmas are widely used for the gas-phase synthesis of
nanoparticles and quantum dots of materials that are difficult or impractical to synthesize …

Particle nucleation and growth in gases involves nucleation via growth of small molecular or
ionic clusters, growth by vapor deposition on nanoparticle surfaces, and coagulation due to …

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are the energy storage devices that dominate the portable
electronic market. They are now also considered and used for electric vehicles and are …

Low-temperature plasmas have seen increasing use for synthesizing high-quality, mono-
disperse nanoparticles (NPs). Recent work has highlighted that an important process in NP …

An experimental cold-gas study of the response of a choked convergent–divergent nozzle to
swirl perturbations is presented. The perturbations were obtained by means of upstream …

Low temperature plasma (LTP) is a highly nonequilibrium substance capable of increasing
the specific free energy of mass that flows through it. Despite this attractive feature, there are …

Particles in nonthermal dusty plasmas tend to charge negatively. However several effects
can result in a significant fraction of the particles being neutral or positively charged, in …
