91°µÍø scientists recently demonstrated a low-temperature, safe route to purifying molten chloride salts that minimizes their ability to corrode metals.
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.
Joe Paddison, a Eugene P. Wigner Fellow at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø, believes there’s more information to be found in neutron scattering data than scientists like himself might expect.
Students often participate in internships and receive formal training in their chosen career fields during college, but some pursue professional development opportunities even earlier.
Raphaël Hermann of the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø conducts experiments to better understand materials for energy and information applications.
Kimberly Jeskie and Michelle Kidder of the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø have been named 2018 American Chemical Society (ACS) fellows.
The lighter wand for your gas BBQ, a submarine’s sonar device and the ultrasound machine at your doctor’s office all rely on piezoelectric materials, which turn mechanical stress into electrical energy, and vice versa.
Scientists at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø are pioneering the use of infrared cameras to image additive manufacturing processes in hopes of better understanding how processing conditions affect the strength, residual stresses an
For more than 50 years, scientists have debated what turns particular oxide insulators, in which electrons barely move, into metals, in which electrons flow freely.
