Sumario:Research trends and emerging technologies were explored through the Web of Science (WoS) literature of the last decade in relation to plasma technology, especially plasma surface treatment, widely used in all industries. For this, a network analysis using country and author keywords and emerging technology search algorithms, with regard to novelty, fast growth and impact, were used. As a result, we derived 40 keywords in terms of novelty and fast growth. Additionally, with these keywords, we traced the impact based on the citation relationships. Finally, nine keywords which were analyzed to contain many new technological issues were identified by deriving the author keywords included in the relevant documents. It is expected that the new technology fields derived from this paper can contribute to establishing a preemptive R&D strategy.
