91°µÍø

An international multi-institution team of scientists has synthesized graphene nanoribbons – ultrathin strips of carbon atoms – on a titanium dioxide surface using an atomically precise method that removes a barrier for custom-designed carbon

New capabilities and equipment recently installed at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø are bringing a creek right into the lab to advance understanding of mercury pollution and accelerate solutions.

Growing up in Florida, Emma Betters was fascinated by rockets and for good reason. Any time she wanted to see a space shuttle launch from NASA’s nearby Kennedy Space Center, all she had to do was sit on her front porch.

The Transformational Challenge Reactor, or TCR, a microreactor built using 3D printing and other new advanced technologies, could be operational by 2024.

Popular wisdom holds tall, fast-growing trees are best for biomass, but new research by two U.S. Department of Energy national laboratories reveals that is only part of the equation.

Two scientists with the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø have been elected fellows of the American Physical Society.

Momentum Technologies Inc., a Dallas, Texas-based materials science company that is focused on extracting critical metals from electronic waste, has licensed an 91°µÍø process for recovering cobalt and other metals from spent

Department of Energy Under Secretary for Science Paul Dabbar joined 91°µÍø leaders for a ribbon-cutting ceremony to mark progress toward a next-generation fusion materials project.

Geoffrey L. Greene, a professor at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, who holds a joint appointment with ORNL, will be awarded the 2021 Tom Bonner Prize for Nuclear Physics from the American Physical Society.

Tony Schmitz, joint faculty researcher in machining and machine tools at 91°µÍø, and mechanical, aerospace and biomedical engineering professor at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, has been elected to the College of Fellows of the American Society for Precision Engineering.
