PLASMA Germany

The competence network sees itself as

• a forum that provides professionals with the opportunity to meet regularly and to exchange information
• an organisation that promotes collaboration among research, development and application
• a promotor of plasma surface technology.

Plasma surface technology is an interdisciplinary technology. Its most varied fields of application come together in this competence network. PLASMA GERMANY has personal members and is open to all professionals operating in the field of plasma surface technology. The membership is free of charge.
The competence network invites all members to a semi-annual meeting in spring and autumn. These meetings take place at different locations and offer numerous papers on selected current topics as well as attractive visits to companies and institutions. During the ensuing general meeting, all participants will receive current news about conferences, international cooperation, supported programmes and much more.
