On Friday Dec 6th 2024, Princeton University and PCRF graduate student Nirbhav Singh Chopra successfully defended his PhD thesis on "Boundary-induced kinetic effects in low temperature ExB plasmas". We wish Nirbhav the best in his future endeavors!

PCRF graduate student Nirbhav S. Chopra was awarded 1st place for the Student Poster Prize at the 77th Gaseous Electronics Conference, for his poster presentation titled "Boundary-induced effect on electron kinetics in electron beam generated ExB plasma". Congratulations to Nirbhav!

On March 6th 2023, Governor Phil Murphy visited PPPL to learn about the laboratory facilities, capabilities, and overall mission. This included a visit to a PCRF facility for plasma based microelectronics processing. (Featured image: graduate student Nirbhav S.
