91����

A world-leading researcher in solid electrolytes and sophisticated electron microscopy methods received 91����’s top science honor today for her work in developing new materials for batteries. The announcement was made during a livestreamed Director’s Awards event hosted by ORNL Director Thomas Zacharia.

A new technology for rare-earth elements chemical separation has been licensed to Marshallton Research Laboratories, a North Carolina-based manufacturer of organic chemicals for a range of industries.

Ten scientists from the Department of Energy’s 91���� are among the world’s most highly cited researchers, according to a bibliometric analysis conducted by the scientific publication analytics firm Clarivate.

Amy Elliott, a group leader for robotics and intelligent systems at 91����, has received the 2021 ASTM International Additive Manufacturing Young Professional Award for her early career research contributions

ORNL has named three researchers ORNL Corporate Fellows for their significant career accomplishments and continued leadership in their scientific fields.

ORNL's Larry Baylor and Andrew Lupini have been elected fellows of the American Physical Society.

Matthew Ryder has been named an emerging investigator by the American Chemical Society journal Crystal Growth and Design. The ACS recognized him as “one of an emerging generation of research group leaders for his work on porous materials design.”

A team led by the ORNL has found a rare quantum material in which electrons move in coordinated ways, essentially “dancing.”

A multidisciplinary team of scientists at ORNL has applied a laser-interference structuring, or LIS, technique that makes significant strides toward eliminating the need for hazardous chemicals in corrosion protection for vehicles.

Scientists at ORNL and the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, have found a way to simultaneously increase the strength and ductility of an alloy by introducing tiny precipitates into its matrix and tuning their size and spacing.
