1. Project NTP Van Ortega Cayetano Shama Karu Sean McKeown Themistoklis Zacharatos Advisor: Dr. Woo Lee Plasma Specialist: Dr. Kurt Becker Powered by:

2. GC Progress Report Helium Tank was borrowed and therefore tests could not be run Will begin Bake out of Column tonight Learned basics of using the GC Called company about Sampler

3. NTP System - Orientation Equipment operation –Mass flow meters –Mass flow controllers –Vacuum pump –AC power source –Exhaust system Experimentation –Argon gas flow –Plasma discharge

4. NTP System – Block Diagram ~ AC Power Flow Controller Flow MeterPlasma Source Vacuum Pump Exhaust Valve Pump Valve Inlet Gas, Ar Exhaust

5. Experiments: Attempt to determine a maximum separations between electrodes in order to initiate plasma. Configuration of tubing system for future anticipated experiments. Assistance by Prof. Park for a new plasma source AC Flow of Ar

6. Estimated Budget
