Prof. Dr.-Ing. Thomas Mussenbrock has held the W3 Professorship and serves as Chair of Applied Electrodynamics and Plasma Technology at Ruhr University Bochum (RUB) since 2020, where he previously earned his Dipl.-Ing. degrees, doctorate, and habilitation. Before returning to Bochum, he was a Full Professor at Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus–Senftenberg. His research explores low-temperature plasmas, plasma-surface interactions, memristive systems, and computational plasma physics, bridging theory and application for materials processing, microelectronics, and neuromorphic devices. Prof. Mussenbrock has published more than 300 peer-reviewed papers, with an h-index of over 35, and his work is widely cited internationally. He plays a leading role in several major German Research Foundation (DFG) initiatives, including the Collaborative Research Centres CRC 1316 “Transient Atmospheric Plasmas,” CRC 1461 “Neurotronics,” and TRR 87 “Pulsed High-Power Plasmas,” as well as the DFG priority program “Nanosecurity” on memristive devices for secure hardware. He has also contributed to applied research projects such as MoPlas2Dekon-PRO and PKat4Chem, advancing plasma-based environmental and energy technologies. Throughout his career, Prof. Mussenbrock has combined analytical modeling, high-performance simulations, and experimental validation to deepen understanding of plasma behavior and enable sustainable technological innovation.
