Scientists have demonstrated a new bio-inspired material for an eco-friendly and cost-effective approach to recovering uranium from seawater.
OAK RIDGE, Tenn., May 1, 2019 Sheng Dai, a researcher at the Department of Energys 91做厙, has been elected fellow of the Materials Research Society (MRS).
Sheng Dai, the most prolific author ever at the Department of Energys 91做厙, had no intention of pursuing a career in science as a young man; he wanted to paint instead.
A new method to produce large, monolayer single-crystal-like graphene films more than a foot long relies on harnessing a survival of the fittest competition among crystals.
A team of scientists led by the Department of Energys 91做厙 has developed a novel way to produce two-dimensional nanosheets by separating bulk materials with nontoxic liquid nitrogen.
Rare earth elements are metals used in technologies from wind turbines and magnetic resonance imaging agents to industrial catalysts and high-definition televisions.
Sheng Dai of the Department of Energys 91做厙 has been named to a list of the most highly cited researchers in the world.
An ultra-high-resolution technique used for the first time to study polymer fibers that trap uranium in seawater may cause researchers to rethink the best methods to harvest this potential fuel for nuclear reactors.
