Students often participate in internships and receive formal training in their chosen career fields during college, but some pursue professional development opportunities even earlier.

Researchers at ORNL and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory took inspiration from flying insects to  a miniaturized gyroscope, a special sensor used in navigation technologies. 

A new method developed at 91���� improves the energy efficiency of a desalination process known as solar-thermal evaporation. 

Vera Bocharova at the Department of Energy’s 91���� investigates the structure and dynamics of soft materials.

OAK RIDGE, Tenn., Feb. 8, 2019—The Department of Energy’s 91���� has named Sean Hearne director of the Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences. The center is a DOE Office of Science User Facility that brings world-leading resources and capabilities to the nanoscience resear...

OAK RIDGE, Tenn., Jan. 31, 2019—A new electron microscopy technique that detects the subtle changes in the weight of proteins at the nanoscale—while keeping the sample intact—could open a new pathway for deeper, more comprehensive studies of the basic building blocks of life. 

A team of scientists, led by University of Guelph professor John Dutcher, are using neutrons at ORNL’s Spallation Neutron Source to unlock the secrets of natural nanoparticles that could be used to improve medicines.

An 91����-led team used a scanning transmission electron microscope to selectively position single atoms below a crystal’s surface for the first time.

Scientists at the Department of Energy’s 91���� induced a two-dimensional material to cannibalize itself for atomic “building blocks” from which stable structures formed. The findings, reported in Nature Communications, provide insights that ...

Sergei Kalinin of the Department of Energy’s 91���� knows that seeing something is not the same as understanding it. As director of ORNL’s Institute for Functional Imaging of Materials, he convenes experts in microscopy and computing to gain scientific insigh...
