Under high temperature conditions, hematite nanocrystals change shape to expose the (001) facet and attach to form one-dimensional chains regardless of their initial structure.
PNNL will provide technical resources and support to a national coalition of states and cities focused on implementing building performance standards to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions.
A comprehensive understanding of the electronic structure of uranyl ions provides insight into the chemistry of nuclear waste and uranium separation technologies.
A team of researchers developed a simulation approach to identify how atomic structures can affect the phonon transport of energy and information in quantum systems near absolute zero temperatures.
Theoretical work shows that an important natural iron source can be described as a nanoscale composite of different, but experimentally indistinguishable, structures.
