Speaker: Professor Min-Chang Lee, ECE Department, Boston University

Research on plasma-based green technologies and some environmental issues will be discussed. The addressed work is a portion of the integrated research and academic programs established at Boston University for plasma-based technologies, viz., plasma photonics and nanotechnology, plasma medicine, spacecraft propulsion, laser and magnetic plasma fusion as green energy sources. Singled out for discussion in this talk is our research on electromagnetic wave-plasma interactions applicable to fusion and solar powered microwave transmissions systems. Conducted research includes theory, field experiments, and laboratory simulations. Relevant courses are scheduled during the school year and the summer as well as planned for the IEEE Boston Section as IEEE short courses.
