Membrane filtering of fluids is central to industries that include everything from biotechnology to petrochemicals to water treatment to food and beverage. The U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne scientists have discovered new behavior of membranes that could lead to separations through pores consistently about ten billionths of a meter.
The first generation of lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles has been a remarkable success story. Yet, the question arises: What changes to battery materials will spur further advances? U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory scientists have discovered the culprit behind the performance fade in a nickel-rich cathode composition capable of much higher energy storage, leading to longer driving range.
A star material for hosting quantum information, diamond nevertheless presents a challenge: Signals from the bits of quantum information embedded in diamond are often messy and inconsistent. In work supported by the Q-NEXT quantum center, which is led by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory, a Stanford University group has uncovered the source its apparently temperamental nature. Zooming in on diamond’s atomic-level makeup, they demonstrated that the diamond’s variegated interior largely explained the erratic signals from quantum bits embedded within.
Argonne scientists designed a way to optimize discovery of nuclear material coatings and identified a promising new candidate along the way.
Scientists will work either solo or in teams on projects related to inflammation and the functions of the immune system.
The Argonne Leadership Computing Facility’s AI Testbed is a growing collection of some of the world’s most advanced AI accelerators available for open science.
What do a particle collider and a human have in common? Not much. But both have parts that need to be kept within a certain temperature range to function properly. It's a phenomenon mechanical engineer Thea Vijaya Kumar knows well. She designs systems to keep people and machines cool -- a cool job in every sense of the word.
A new 3D printing method developed by UC San Diego engineers is so simple that it uses a polymer ink and salt water solution to create solid structures. The work has the potential to make materials manufacturing more sustainable and environmentally friendly.
Scientists have made significant strides in understanding the properties of a ferroelectric material under an electric field. This breakthrough holds potential for advances in computer memory, lasers and sensors for ultraprecise measurements.
Siemens Healthineers has pushed the boundaries of medical engineering to improve patient care for more than 125 years. At the ADLM 2024 Clinical Lab Expo (from July 30-Aug. 1 at McCormick Place, Chicago, Booth #501), Siemens Healthineers will demonstrate what’s achievable for laboratory testing with human-centered engineering and automation.
Grainger engineers are leaders in the efforts to develop the energy systems needed to achieve a cleaner, carbon-free world.
Designed to provide seed funding for innovative research and technology projects, this endowed fund will accelerate ocean science and engineering, spur innovation, and strengthen WHOI’s position at the forefront of ocean science and engineering for the global good.
Scientists from Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University found out that mechanical impact on amorphic ferromagnetic wires during their heat treatment – annealing – improved magnetic properties of these composites. Such materials thanks to the ability to change their magnetization quickly can be used for creation of protective magnetic marks and trackers.
Today, The Grainger College of Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign joined other partners from around the state in officially announcing its leadership role in the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park.
Argonne clean-energy projects are funded by the U.S. Department of Energy. Projects build on Argonne’s leading role in decarbonizing the U.S. economy.
A new paper from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign provides an overview of the current state of organic nanozymes and their future potential.
Dr. Ha’s research team at KERI developed an optimal cathode composite by partial coating of solid electrolyte. They used specialized equipment and simulations to determine the best conditions, with their research published in an international journal
A new study finds that the young scientists who most embrace interdisciplinary research face “career impediments” not seen in their peers who focus their work only within their own disciplines.
In a new conference paper, Argonne engineers test advanced AI to see if it could help nuclear power plant operators understand and fix problems more easily.
As we use electricity to power more and more -- everything from vehicles to lawn mowers -- it's getting harder for utilities to manage the distribution transformers that are in every neighborhood. Iowa State's Zhaoyu Wang is leading an effort to develop a system that will help utilities maintain the important links between the power grid and homes, farms and businesses.
