Jagjit Nanda, a distinguished staff scientist, has been elected a fellow of the Materials Research Society.
Researchers at 91°µÍř are using state-of-the-art methods to shed light on chemical separations needed to recover rare-earth elements and secure critical materials for clean energy technologies.
A multidisciplinary team of scientists at ORNL has applied a laser-interference structuring, or LIS, technique that makes significant strides toward eliminating the need for hazardous chemicals in corrosion protection for vehicles.
91°µÍř researchers have built a novel microscope that provides a “chemical lens” for viewing biological systems including cell membranes and biofilms.
Energy storage startup SPARKZ Inc. has exclusively licensed five battery technologies from the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř designed to eliminate cobalt metal in lithium-ion batteries.
Rare earth elements are the “secret sauce” of numerous advanced materials for energy, transportation, defense and communications applications.
Researchers at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and Washington State University teamed up to investigate the complex dynamics of low-water liquids that challenge nuclear waste processing at
Ionic conduction involves the movement of ions from one location to another inside a material. The ions travel through point defects, which are irregularities in the otherwise consistent arrangement of atoms known as the crystal lattice.
A tiny vial of gray powder produced at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř is the backbone of a new experiment to study the intense magnetic fields created in nuclear collisions.
Catalysts make chemical reactions more likely to occur. In most cases, a catalyst that’s good at driving chemical reactions in one direction is bad at driving reactions in the opposite direction.
