Brookhaven Lab and Stony Brook University scientists use x-rays to map internal atomic transformations and advance promising lithium-based batteries.

Leverhulme Trust grant for research that closely mimics nature entitled Electron transfer between hydrogen bonded ‘dimers of dimers.’

Scientists at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have used advanced microscopy to carve out nanoscale designs on the surface of a new class of ionic polymer materials for the first time. The study provides new evidence that atomic force microscopy, or AFM, could be used to precisely fabricate materials needed for increasingly smaller devices.

In electronics, changing the path of electrons and manipulating how they flow is as easy as applying a magnetic field.

Scientists’ underwater cameras got a boost this summer from the Electron Microscopy Center at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory. Along with colleagues at the University of Manchester, researchers captured the world’s first real-time images and simultaneous chemical analysis of nanostructures while “underwater,” or in solution.

Scientific breakthrough to potentially revolutionize high-speed electronics, nanoscale opto-electronics and nonlinear optics.

Gov. Nikki Haley has recognized three Clemson University professors for the global impact of their research in optical materials science, nanoscale physics and environmental nuclear chemistry.
