The organisers of the Workshop on the Exploration of Low-Temperature Plasma Physics (WELTPP) are glad to announce the 21st edition of our yearly workshop. This two-days-workshop is a unique opportunity for young plasma scientists to get in touch in an informal atmosphere.

The recent report by the UN on Climate Change stresses again the urgency of radically changing our energy system within the next few decades. It puts even more pressure on the Dutch Government to propose more ambitious goals. The transition to a more sustainable energy system is, however, not only about reducing green house gasses.

Rational design of catalytic materials can be achieved using advanced methods that model the multiscale catalyst behavior from the active site at the nanoscale to the reactor at the macroscale. Such methods are currently rather limited as they lack a proper description of the mesoscale.

Optical detection of single molecules is widely used in fields ranging from biology to materials science. The ability to detect single molecules has long relied on fluorescence approaches due to their high signal-to-background ratio. This limits the applicability of the approach to fluorescently labelled molecules with a high quantum yield.
