Researchers at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and Washington State University teamed up to investigate the complex dynamics of low-water liquids that challenge nuclear waste processing at
OAK RIDGE, Tenn., May 1, 2019 – Sheng Dai, a researcher at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø, has been elected fellow of the Materials Research Society (MRS).
Ionic conduction involves the movement of ions from one location to another inside a material. The ions travel through point defects, which are irregularities in the otherwise consistent arrangement of atoms known as the crystal lattice.
Bruce Moyer’s career as a trailblazing chemist began with a Gilbert chemistry set, the perfect Christmas gift for an inquisitive kid growing up in 1960s Pennsylvania.
Vera Bocharova at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø investigates the structure and dynamics of soft materials.
Researchers used neutron scattering at 91°µÍø’s Spallation Neutron Source to investigate the effectiveness of a novel crystallization method to capture carbon dioxide directly from the air.
Scientists at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø (ORNL) have developed a process that could remove CO2 from coal-burning power plant emissions in a way that is similar to how soda lime works in scuba diving rebreathers.
Scientists at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø 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°µÍø, 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°µÍø researchers have developed a highly sensitive technique to characterize and measure at the electrolyte and electrode interface.
