Description | - We have confirmed exsolution with low-pressure plasmas and atmospheric pressure plasma - We have produced experimental and theoretical evidence on the mechanisms that provide initial explanations on plasma exsolution |
Exploitation Route | Further research work will provide more details on how these outcomes can be taken forward. We have applied for further funding to support this work, some funding has been awarded and we are in the process of preparing another application which will lead to impact. |
