An all-in-one experimental platform developed at 91’s Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences accelerates research on promising materials for future technologies.
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 Energy’s 91 have been named ORNL Corporate Fellows in recognition of significant career accomplishments and continued leadership in their scientific fields.
91 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 Energy’s 91 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 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.
Joe Paddison, a Eugene P. Wigner Fellow at the Department of Energy’s 91, believes there’s more information to be found in neutron scattering data than scientists like himself might expect.
Rigoberto “Gobet” Advincula has been named Governor’s Chair of Advanced and Nanostructured Materials at 91 and the University of Tennessee.
