PLASMOTEG Scientific and Engineering Centre of the Physical-Technical Institute of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus (SEC Plasmoteg NAS of Belarus) is a scientific and investigation organization of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) of Belarus.
PLASMOTEG was created by decision of USSR State Committee for Science and Technology (GKNT) and Presidium of BSSR Academy of Sciences in 1990 on the base of thin films physics laboratory of Electronics Institute. 43 scientific and engineer-scientific workers, among them 9 doctors of sciences, work in PLASMOTEG laboratories. Corresponding member of NAS of Belarus E.I.Tochitsky is the head of the Center.
The main directions of PLASMOTEG activity are:
• physics of thin films and coatings, theory and methods of obtaining of diamond-like, multicomponent and multilayer coatings;
• theory of interaction of low temperature plasma, ion beams, laser radiation and other types of concentrated energy with hard bodies surface;
• creation of thin film elements for devices of technical and medico-biological purpose.
During a little period of PLASMOTEG EC existence its scientists have executed fundamental theoretic and experimental investigations by kinetic and thermodynamic of thin film phase formation in conditions of stationary and pulsed condensation. The works of investigation of films and coatings physical properties dependence of their thickness, influence of grain borders on conductivity electrons dispersion, phase equilibrium displacement of multicomponent thin film systems, kinetic of limited thickness films crystallization, cluster condensation have win the international recognition. An unique technology and industrial equipment are designed, pulsed plasma accelerators giving a possibility to do with a highprecision multilayer and multicomponent coatings of ordered composition and thickness and to synthesize unknown before materials at programmed mixing in any proportion and combinations of substance flows which don't dissolve and react reciprocally are made. The technology and equipment for deposition of diamond-like coatings on parts of machines and mechanisms, precision sliding bearings and tools are elaborated. The priority of these technology and equipment are confirmed by international patents, license and commercial proposals of some great companies of USA, Japan, Germany and Finland.
