Research
The Leibniz Institute for Plasma Science and Technology (INP) is the largest non-university institute in the area of low temperature plasmas in Europe, including their basic research and technical applications.
The research is organized in the two research divisions Plasmas for Materials and Energy
(Head: Prof. Dirk Uhrlandt) and Environment and Health (Head: Prof. Klaus-Dieter Weltmann) each covering three research programs at present.
Materials and Energy
The research division bundles issues of plasma applications in the areas of energy and production technology. This currently comprises application areas in the generation of functional coatings, thin layers and catalytically active materials by means of plasma processes, the plasma chemical synthesis as well as topics of the power and process engineering.

Research Groups
Research groups at INP are concerned with plasma wound healing, plasma source concepts, agricultural culture, and materials for energy technology.More...
Environment and Health
The research area, Plasmas for Environment and Health focuses on interdisciplinary topics and uses the synergies of its three research priorities: Bioactive surfaces, plasma medicine and decontamination. More...
Junior Research Groups
The INP promotes young researchers at all levels of the institute and beyond. With our application-oriented basic research, we inspire the next generation of scientists to work on topics relevant to society as a whole. More...
