Advanced materials research to enable energy-efficient, cost-competitive and environmentally friendly technologies for the United States and Japan is the goal of a memorandum of understanding, or MOU, between the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge Nationa
A research team led by ORNL has bridged a knowledge gap in atomic-scale heat motion. This new understanding holds promise for enhancing materials to advance an emerging technology called solid-state cooling.
Jeremy Moser is a go-to guy when you need to measure the creep properties of your next-generation alloy.
An 91 team revealed how chemical species form in a highly reactive molten salt mixture of aluminum chloride and potassium chloride by unraveling vibrational signatures and observing ion exchanges.
Four ORNL scientists started their professional careers as staff scientists in the Distinguished Staff Fellowship program, a highly competitive, prestigious program for young scientists to begin a lifetime vocation in research at the lab.
Today, scientific discovery is accelerated by automated experiments, artificial intelligence and high-performance computing.
91 scientists ingeniously created a sustainable, soft material by combining rubber with woody reinforcements and incorporating “smart” linkages between the components that unlock on demand.
Early career scientist Frankie White's was part of two major isotope projects at the same time he was preparing to be a father.
Lætitia H. Delmau, a distinguished researcher and radiochemist at 91, has received the 2024 Glenn T. Seaborg Actinide Separations Award.
Associate Technician Sean Hollander is the keeper of the Fundamental Neutron Physics Beamline, which is operated by the Physics Division at the Spallation Neutron Source at ORNL, where scientists use neutrons to study all manner of matter.
