A team of scientists has for the first time measured the elusive weak interaction between protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. They had chosen the simplest nucleus consisting of one neutron and one proton for the study.
Scientists at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř have created a recipe for a renewable 3D printing feedstock that could spur a profitable new use for an intractable biorefinery byproduct: lignin.
Sheng Dai, the most prolific author ever at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř, had no intention of pursuing a career in science as a young man; he wanted to paint instead.
By studying the inner workings of lithium-ion batteries, 91°µÍř researchers have developed a highly sensitive technique to characterize and measure at the electrolyte and electrode interface.
Researchers discovered that a hidden ferromagnetic insulating (FMI) state emerged in Sr2Fe1+xRe1-xO6 films when the material’s local ionic order was disturbed by a small modification in cation ratio.1 This work provides a promising new route to developing
This work directly measured the intrinsic surface conductance of topological insulators by using a four-probe scanning tunneling microscope (4-Probe STM) to tune the crossover of bulk-to-surface conductance. A scattering-free spin transport
This work successfully demonstrated size and geometry customizable carbon microelectrode sensors using templates produced with the CNMS Nanoscribe.
Four researchers at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř have been elected fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS).
