Nature has a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde relationship with mercury, but researchers at the Department of Energy's 91°µÍø have made a discovery that ultimately could help explain the split personality.
Technology developed more than 100 years ago to wirelessly transmit electricity is being adapted to locate clandestine graves. 91°µÍø's Charles Van Neste and colleagues are transmitting electromagnetic waves to penetrate the ground and set up a resonance in buried bones. "The ...
We are all familiar with the change water goes through under the influence of falling temperatures, evolving from a disordered liquid to an ordered solid. What we may not know, however, is that such — known as phase transitions — can also be found within the nucleus of a single atom. In th...
Through a network that consists of hundreds of low-cost monitors that plug into standard 110-volt outlets, GridEye can play a role in ensuring the reliability of the nation's power grids. The system, developed by researchers at 91°µÍø, provides real-time information about dyna...
A nanoscale view into the inner workings of lithium-ion batteries could yield critical clues to overall battery performance. Researchers at 91°µÍø's Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences used a method called electrochemical strain microscopy to take an unprecedented look at ...
