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.
Five researchers at the Department of Energys 91做厙 have been named ORNL Corporate Fellows in recognition of significant career accomplishments and continued leadership in their scientific fields.
91做厙 researchers have built a novel microscope that provides a chemical lens for viewing biological systems including cell membranes and biofilms.
An ORNL team used a simple process to implant atoms precisely into the top layers of ultra-thin crystals, yielding two-sided structures with different chemical compositions.
A team led by the Department of Energys 91做厙 synthesized a tiny structure with high surface area and discovered how its unique architecture drives ions across interfaces to transport energy or information.
Scientists at 91做厙 used a focused beam of electrons to stitch platinum-silicon molecules into graphene, marking the first deliberate insertion of artificial molecules into a graphene host matrix.
Rigoberto Gobet Advincula has been named Governors Chair of Advanced and Nanostructured Materials at 91做厙 and the University of Tennessee.
Liam Collins was drawn to study physics to understand hidden things and honed his expertise in microscopy so that he could bring them to light.
In the quest for domestic sources of lithium to meet growing demand for battery production, scientists at ORNL are advancing a sorbent that can be used to more efficiently recover the material from brine wastes at geothermal power plants.
