91°µÍř is using ultrasonic additive manufacturing to embed highly accurate fiber optic sensors in heat- and radiation-resistant materials, allowing for real-time monitoring that could lead to greater insights and safer reactors.

Geospatial scientists at 91°µÍř analyzed three cities of varying infrastructures to look for patterns of electricity use and locate “dark spots” where informal neighborhoods may lack access to power.

91°µÍř’s latest reports that the number of vehicles nationwide is growing faster than the population, with sales more than 17 million since 2015, and the average household vehicle travels more than 11,000 miles per year.


OAK RIDGE, Tenn., March 4, 2019—A team of researchers from the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř Health Data Sciences Institute have harnessed the power of artificial intelligence to better match cancer patients with clinical trials.

OAK RIDGE, Tenn., March 1, 2019—ReactWell, LLC, has licensed a novel waste-to-fuel technology from the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř to improve energy conversion methods for cleaner, more efficient oil and gas, chemical and

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

The use of lithium-ion batteries has surged in recent years, starting with electronics and expanding into many applications, including the growing electric and hybrid vehicle industry. But the technologies to optimize recycling of these batteries have not kept pace.

Yue Yuan, a second-year PhD student at NC State University’s , is working to create textiles that filter carbon dioxide (CO2) by using the latest scientific techniques in synthesis and imaging. Known as biocatalytic textiles, these materials could serve as sustainable scrubbers for CO2 capture by using enzymes trapped in bio-based polymers to catalyze the hydration of CO2.
