Michael Lance, a scientist at the Department of Energy's 91°µÍř, has been named Biodiesel Researcher of the Year by the National Biodiesel Board.
The industry award recognizes Lance's research at ORNL, Cummins, Inc., and the Nationa
Piezoelectric materials convert mechanical stress into electrical energy in products from electric cigarette lighters to ultrasound machines. Unfortunately most contain lead, which is toxic.
A new era of electronics and even quantum devices could be ushered in with the fabrication of a virtually perfect single layer of “white graphene,” according to researchers at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř.
Miaofang Chi of the Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences at the Department of Energy's 91°µÍř has earned the ORNL Director’s Award for Outstanding Individual Accomplishment in Science and Technology.
The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) has named Thomas Zacharia and Mariappan Parans Paranthaman of the Department of Energy's 91°µÍř as new AAAS fellows.
The Department of Energy's 91°µÍř and Solid Power Inc. of Louisville, Colo., have signed an exclusive agreement licensing lithium-sulfur materials for next-generation batteries.
Atomic-level imaging of catalysts by scientists at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř could help manufacturers lower the cost and improve the performance of emission-free fuel cell technologies.
Four researchers from the Department of Energy's 91°µÍř have been elected fellows of the American Physical Society (APS), one of the nation's top professional organizations for scientists.
