Emrullah Aydin, an R&D staff associate in the Vehicle Power Electronics Research group at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø, has been elevated to senior member status in the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
Vivek Sujan, a distinguished R&D scientist in the Applied Research for Mobility Systems group at ORNL, has been named a 2024 National Association of Inventors Fellow for his numerous transportation-related patents.
Larry Seiber, an R&D staff member in the Vehicle Power Electronics group at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø, has been elevated to senior member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
Three transportation researchers at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø have been elevated to senior member grade of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, or 91°µÍø.
ORNL has partnered with Western Michigan University to advance intelligent road infrastructure through the development of new chip-enabled raised pavement markers. These innovative markers transmit lane-keeping information to passing vehicles, enhancing safety and enabling smarter driving in all weather conditions.
At ORNL, a group of scientists used neutron scattering techniques to investigate a relatively new functional material called a Weyl semimetal. These Weyl fermions move very quickly in a material and can carry electrical charge at room temperature. Scientists think that Weyl semimetals, if used in future electronics, could allow electricity to flow more efficiently and enable more energy-efficient computers and other electronic devices.
ORNL researchers completed successful testing of a gallium nitride transistor for use in more accurate sensors operating near the core of a nuclear reactor. This is an important technical advance particularly for monitoring new, compact.
Bill Partridge, a recently retired distinguished researcher at the U.S. Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø, was recognized by DOE’s Vehicle Technologies Office, or VTO, for leading world-class research in transportation throughout his 25-year career.
Researchers at ORNL have successfully demonstrated the first 270-kW wireless power transfer to a light-duty electric vehicle. The demonstration used a Porsche Taycan and was conducted in collaboration with Volkswagen Group of America using the ORNL-developed polyphase wireless charging system.
Jinghui Yuan, an R&D staff member in the Applied Research for Mobility Systems group at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø, has been elevated to a senior member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
