Plasma Materials Test Facility

On March 16, 2011, in

The Plasma Materials Test Facility (PMTF) at Sandia National Laboratories is a DOE designated user and work-for-others (WFO) facility. This designation permits outside researchers from private companies and universities to either visit and use the facility when no DOE experiments are underway or to contract Sandia directly through a WFO agreement to perform their testing. [...]
