PNNL has three small-scale spectroscopy devices that are speeding up the testing and analysis of candidate novel materials used in energy storage research and environmental remediation.
Writing in the journal Nature Chemistry, PNNL materials scientists Jim De Yoreo and Benjamin Legg provides context to new work showing how single atoms organize into clusters that seed crystal growth
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory researchers used machine learning to explore the largest water clusters database, identifying—with the most accurate neural network—important information about this life-essential molecule.
Five PNNL technologies were recently awarded six R&D 100 honors. The R&D 100 Awards, now in its 58th year, recognize pioneers in science and technology from industry, the federal government, and academia.
Sharon Hammes-Schiffer, deputy director of the Center for Molecular Electrocatalysis (CME), has received awards from both the Royal Society of Chemistry and the American Chemical Society.
Culminating 10 years of study, researchers at PNNL’s Marine and Coastal Research Laboratory developed a new predictive framework for estuarine–tidal river research and management.
A team of researchers led by scientists from PNNL simulated carbon cycling and community composition during 100 years of forest regrowth following disturbance.
PNNL’s Heida Diefenderfer was recently appointed to a National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine committee that will assess long-term environmental trends in the Gulf of Mexico region.
First-ever measurements provide evidence that supercooled water exists in two distinct structures that co-exist and vary in proportion dependent on temperature.
In a new review, PNNL researchers outline how to convert stranded biomass to sustainable fuel using electrochemical reduction reactions in mini-refineries powered by renewable energy.
