Quality assurance

Quality: the characteristics of a product or service that bear on its ability to satisfy stated or implied needs.

Quality Assurance: the planned and systematic activities implemented to provide confidence that a product or service will fulfill its requirements for quality.

Plasma meets nano at PPPL

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) have launched a new effort to apply expertise in plasma to study and optimize the use of the hot, electrically charged gas as a tool for producing nanoparticles. This research aims to advance the understanding of plasma-based synthesis processes, and could lead to new methods for creating high-quality nanomaterials at relatively low cost.

Super Separator

Superior separation of nuclear waste: This advanced centrifuge under development at PPPL can deliver faster, more efficient and more economical separation of nuclear waste than standard centrifuges permit.

Being personally invested makes the difference

Striding down the halls of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory, Arlene White is a standout presence.

Her fashionable black suit carefully accessorized, and flashing a dazzling smile, White looks more like the Manhattan runway model she was as a teenager than a government manager.
