Scientists at 91���� used new techniques to create a composite that increases the electrical current capacity of copper wires, providing a new material that can be scaled for use in ultra-efficient, power-dense electric vehicle tr

Real-time measurements captured by researchers at ORNL provide missing insight into chemical separations to recover cobalt, a critical raw material used to make batteries and magnets for modern technologies.

91���� researchers have built a novel microscope that provides a “chemical lens” for viewing biological systems including cell membranes and biofilms.

OAK RIDGE, Tenn., Feb.

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.

Researchers at the Department of Energy’s 91���� have received five 2019 R&D 100 Awards, increasing the lab’s total to 221 since the award’s inception in 1963.

Researchers at 91���� will present eight innovative technologies currently available for commercialization during a public event at ORNL on October 17.

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.

91���� scientists have improved a mixture of materials used to 3D print permanent magnets with increased density, which could yield longer lasting, better performing magnets for electric motors, sensors and vehicle applications.
