Research fields:

Low-temperature plasma investigations, high-resolution spectroscopy, light source technology, plasma/surface interaction, inductively coupled discharge, capacitatively coupled discharge, plasma nanotechnology

Projects:

• National Research Program in Materialscience (Proj.No.1., "Perspective inorganic materials for photonics and energetics")

• Latvian Council of Science Grant No 05.1866  (Low temperature plasma studies and application of results in surface processing and light source technology)

• LU proekts Nr. LU2008/ZI3-66 " Nobela prēmijas laureātu sanāksme "

High-resolution spectroscopy and light source technology laboratory participated successfully in the application of the project: "Institute of Atomic Physics and Spectroscopy - Centre of Excellence for Basic Research in Nanoscale Physics and Applications" in the FP5 Programme in 2002. Only the work-package of our laboratory (Task 2: "Low-pressure plasma investigation for application in light source technology and surface processing") together with coordination Task 7 has been approved for funding by the FP5 experts but we got no financial support  from this Programme. :
