PLAS@PAR industrial seminars 2018
Industrial seminars are organized for Master and PhD students interested in Plasma Physics and industrial applications. They are of course open to any member of the community. 2 seminars are scheduled in 2018.
Seminar n°1: Plasma physics at ONERA
Speaker: F. Péchereau
Date: November 15, 2018
Time: 10h-12h
Location: Pierre and Marie Curie Campus, Jussieu, Sorbonne University, Tower 24-34, 5th floor, room 509 (LPP/Lerma)
Few words about ONERA
ONERA, the French Aerospace Lab, is a public research establishment whose goal is to perform fundamental and applied research to support the competitiveness and creativity of the European aerospace and defence industry. The research carried out at ONERA involves both fundamental activities for mid to long-term aerospace applications, and more applied activities, such as the design and manufacturing of prototypes (early warning radars, lightning monitoring network or satellite payload). Two teams are involved in PLAS@PAR, both part of the Physics, Instrumentation, Environment and Space Department.
Seminar n°2: Plasma physics at Air Serenity
Speaker: J. Youssef
Date: November 22, 2018
Time: 10h-12h
Location: Ecole Polytechnique, Route de Saclay, Palaiseau, Amphithéatre Poisson
Few words about Air Serenity
Air Serenity is an R & D company focusing on Air Quality through the destruction of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), microorganisms (bacteria, viruses, fungi) and particulate matter (e.g. smoke, animal hairs).
Air Serenity has been founded by Joseph Youssef, after a PhD completed in the Laboratoire de Physique des Plasmas at Ecole Polytechnique. The theme he addressed was about Air Quality in personal cars. The results were patented and enabled Joseph Youssef to further develop the Aurora technology.
Two technologies are combined in Aurora: highly specialized materials and cold plasma. Their combination enables the destruction of both chemical and biological pollutants. This unique, scientifically proven, and patented process destroys bacteria, viruses, fungi, and other chemical pollutants. By mastering this process, Air Serenity endeavors to offer products with a tremendous positive impact on the quality of life of allergies or asthma sufferers.

The 3rd Plasapar Industry will be held on December 10 in Paris. We expect more than sixty Masters students, PhD students and Plas@Par scientists to attend this event, which this year will consist of a plenary session in the morning, followed by a poster session combined with a friendly buffet for lunch, and a workshop on entrepreuneurship for students in the afternoon.
This Industry Day has two goals:
- The first goal is to show Master students and PhD students the applications of Plasma Physics in the economic world. The broad range of presentations from the industry and the Plasapar laboratories will testify of the diverse applications of plasma, regading the topic of environment. These applications can be found in large-scale companies, SMEs or startups.
- A second goal is to bring together scientists of Plas@Par and experts from the industry, to strengthen existing collaborations and also possibly develop new ones. The different presentations and posters will support fruitful exchanges and help everyone to get to know each other.
2nd Plas@Par Industry day
The 2nd Plasapar Industry day was held on november 20th, in Paris. More than sixty Masters students, PhD students and plasapar scientists attended this event, which this year took the form of a plenary session in the morning, followed by a poster session combined with a friendly buffet.
The presentations were focused on the link between the plasma science and the industry, through examples of novel plasma applications, valorization or development done in close link with the industry. (cf. agenda below).
This industry day had two goals. The first goal was to show the masters’ students and Phd students the large field of applications of the plasma science in the economic world. The broad range of presentations from the industry and the Plasapar laboratories has testified of the diverse applications of the plasma, such as in the aerospace field, in medical sciences or the cosmetics industry, high-energy lasers, etc. These applications can be found in large-scale companies, or SME or startups. A second goal was to bring together scientists of PlasaPar, and experts from the industry, to strengthen existing collaborations and also possibly developing new ones. The different presentations and posters were the support for fruitful exchanges, helping the different attendants (plasapar scientist, students, industry experts) to get to know each other.
In summary, this industry day was intense, packed with information, and will hopefully enables renewed collaboration between the plasapar laboratories and the industry, around the plasmas

1st Plas@Par Industry day
The first «Industry» day of the Labex Plas@Par took place on November 2013’ 14th at the LPCMR, Paris, and brought together over fifty participants. The purpose was to highlight the rich contacts established by the Labex with industry, be it through special partnerships, career opportunities for Ph.Ds, or via the creation of start-ups. The day was articulated around seminars, poster presentations and discussions. We note that masters and doctoral students were there in strength.
Presentations by representatives from industry alternated with those from academia. On the industry side, EXCICO presented the progress it has realized in laser excimers, PANTECHNIK its research in ECR sources, ARTENUM its software development concerning the interaction between particles and satellites, ASTRIUM-EADS its research on the effects of lightning on hybrid materials, ALKO its work on the purification of internal air and PLASMABIOTICS its work on sterilization using plasmas. S. Dine, founder of the SOLAYL start-up, retraced how a HiTech company is created.
On the side of academia, research partnerships or the use of devices made by industrial partners were emphasized: we note in particular the change in the wave forms in engraving or coating units (JP Booth-LPP), satellite environments (JC. Matéo Vélez-ONERA), X-ray spectroscopy (M. Trassinelli and D. Vernhet – INSP), problems related to space (PQ Elias-ONERA).
