The Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø, FCA US LLC, and the foundry giant, Nemak of Mexico, are combining their strengths to create lightweight powertrain materials that will help the auto industry speed past the technological
Electron microscopy researchers at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø have developed a unique way to build 3-D structures with finely controlled shapes as small as one to two billionths of a meter.
A tool that provides world-class microscopy and spatially resolved chemical analysis shows considerable promise for advancing a number of areas of study, including chemical science, pharmaceutical development and disease progression.
The hybrid optical mi
A new study from the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø explains the mechanism behind a technology that converts bio-based ethanol into hydrocarbon blend-stocks for use as fossil fuel alternatives.
An international team led by Gaute Hagen of the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø used America’s most powerful supercomputer, Titan, to compute the neutron distribution and related observables of calcium-48
Designing alloys to withstand extreme environments is a fundamental challenge for materials scientists.
RJ Lee Group has signed an agreement to license an invention developed at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø that converts waste rubber into a valuable energy storage material.
The technology turns rubber sources such as tires into c
Catalysts that power chemical reactions to produce the nylon used in clothing, cookware, machinery and electronics could get a lift with a new formulation that saves time, energy and natural resources.
Engines, laptops and power plants generate waste heat. Thermoelectric materials, which convert temperature gradients to electricity and vice versa, can recover some of that heat and improve energy efficiency.
Quasiparticles—excitations that behave collectively like particles—are central to energy applications but can be difficult to detect.
