Through this collaboration, together we came with the backgrounds “How the coupled physics between the piezoelectric effectĪnd plasma discharge is related and how they can be predictively generated or controlled Ultrasound and mechanical vibration with their unique property of electromechanical “Piezoelectric materials are the cornerstone of the smart materials that can generate While Farouk and Go are plasma physics experts, Sourav brings expertise in piezoelectric $10,000-$50,000 on the power supply to drive the plasma, then the industry or company They always ask is, ‘How fancy is the power supply?’ If you say that you need to spend Up plasma to a third party, such as medical or chemical industries, the first thing
“Plasma is very good for doing a lot of chemical processing. Farouk’s researchĪims to provide a better understanding of a new area of plasma science for biomedical, ThisĮnables the direct formation of a plasma at the piezoelectric surface. Plasma sources, which are capable of obtaining the necessary high voltage gain. According to Farouk, piezoelectric materials could limit the needįor high-end power supplies by using mechanical motion to produce piezoelectric stimulated But they require large and expensive equipment, especially Which allows it to be used in a variety of applications, including sterilization, The key advantage of non-thermal (non-equilibrium) plasma is its chemical selectivity, Through cohesive modeling and experiments that considers piezoelectric materials as To provide a fundamental understanding of piezoelectric stimulated plasma sources UofSC, which was complimentary to his efforts at Notre Dame,” Farouk says.Ĭurrently, there is a limited understanding about the interaction and the differentĬoupled processes of piezoelectric materials and plasmas. He became aware of the plasma research at “When I became mechanical engineering graduate program director, David was one of Co-principal investigators are Sourav Banerjee of the College of Engineering and Computing’s Department of Mechanical Engineering,Īnd University of Notre Dame Professor David Go, whose relationship with Farouk started in 2019 with a graduate program evaluation. Mechanical Engineering Associate Professor Tanvir Farouk recently started research into how piezoelectric materials and plasma can be combinedįarouk’s three-year, $650,000 research is funded by the National Science Foundation’sĮcosystem for Leading Innovation in Plasma Science and Engineering (ECLIPSE) program. Substances in nature demonstrate this effect, including crystals and DNA. Materials generate an internal electric charge for applied mechanical stress and several This may include using a cigarette lighter or turning on a gas burner. Most people are not familiar with piezoelectric materials, yet they have used themīefore.
