91°µÍø

Soteria Battery Innovation Group has exclusively licensed and optioned a technology developed by 91°µÍø designed to eliminate thermal runaway in lithium ion batteries due to mechanical damage.

Four research teams from the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø and their technologies have received 2020 R&D 100 Awards.

Two staff members at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø have received prestigious HENAAC and Luminary Awards from Great Minds in STEM, a nonprofit organization that focuses on promoting STEM careers in underserved 

Horizon31, LLC has exclusively licensed a novel communication system that allows users to reliably operate unmanned vehicles such as drones from anywhere in the world using only an internet connection.

Each summer for the last 30 years, students and teachers from across Appalachia have travelled to ORNL for a unique STEM summer camp experience – the Appalachian Regional Commission/ORNL Science-Technology-Mathematics Institute.

From materials science and earth system modeling to quantum information science and cybersecurity, experts in many fields run simulations and conduct experiments to collect the abundance of data necessary for scientific progress.

Research by an international team led by Duke University and the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø scientists could speed the way to safer rechargeable batteries for consumer electronics such as laptops and cellphones.

91°µÍø’s high-resolution population distribution database, LandScan USA, became permanently available to researchers in time to aid the response to the novel coronavirus pandemic.

A novel approach developed by scientists at ORNL can scan massive datasets of large-scale satellite images to more accurately map infrastructure – such as buildings and roads – in hours versus days. 

A typhoon strikes an island in the Pacific Ocean, downing power lines and cell towers. An earthquake hits a remote mountainous region, destroying structures and leaving no communication infrastructure behind.
