Three staff selected for leadership program that brings together representatives from all 17 Department of Energy national laboratories to build the national lab leaders of tomorrow.
Steven Spurgeon, a materials scientist and microscopy researcher at PNNL, has accepted an affiliate associate professorship at the University of Washington Department of Physics.
In adjoining Energy Sciences Center laboratories, researchers develop better energy storage devices by understanding the fundamental reactions that form interfaces.
Johannes Lercher, Battelle Fellow and director of the PNNL Institute for Integrated Catalysis, envisions energy storage solutions at the new Energy Sciences Center.
Molecular self-assembly expert Chun-Long Chen describes the challenges and opportunities in bio-inspired nanomaterials in a special issue of Chemical Reviews.
Developed at PNNL, Shear Assisted Processing and Extrusion, or ShAPE™, uses significantly less energy and can deliver components like wire, tubes and bars 10 times faster than conventional extrusion, with no sacrifice in quality.
IDREAM wins Department of Energy art contest with entry that illuminates how IDREAM scientists pivoted during pandemic to accomplish critical nuclear research.
Scott Chambers creates layered structures of thin metal oxide films and studies their properties, creating materials not found in nature. He will soon move his instrumentation and research to the new Energy Sciences Center.
Creating films with atomic precision allows researchers moving to the Energy Sciences Center to identify small, but important changes in the materials.
An energy-efficient method to extrude metal components wins Association of Washington Business Green Manufacturing Award. PNNL’s Shear Assisted Processing and Extrusion™ technology consumes less energy and enhances material properties.
