Keeping energy-concentrating mirrors at solar thermal power plants free from dirt is both labor and time intensive. Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory are working to address the challenge with lab-developed superhydrophobic coating technology. “We’ve shown that applying...


In nuclear reactors, energetic neutrons slam into metal atoms that are ordered in a lattice, displacing them with enough force to trigger a cascade of collisions. Laurent Béland, Yury Osetskiy and Roger Stoller, of the Energy Dissipation to Defect Evolution Energy Frontier Resear...

Just a few years ago, Emilio Ramirez spent his days operating and adjusting settings to optimize thermal performance at a Central California bioenergy power plant. Ramirez, a California native who is now a University of Tennessee doctoral candidate working with the Department of...

Miaofang Chi is an early career scientist making a name for herself—and microscopy—at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory. She is a researcher at ORNL’s Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences whose early-career

Just a few years ago, Emilio Ramirez spent his days operating and adjusting settings to optimize thermal performance at a Central California bioenergy power plant.

A 3D printed trim-and-drill tool, developed by researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory to be evaluated at The Boeing Company, has received the title of largest solid 3D printed item by Guinness World Records. ORNL printed the...

Phillip Britt, director of Chemical Sciences Division at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, has won the 2016 Henry H. Storch Award in Fuel Science from the Energy and Fuels Division of the American Chemical Society (ACS). Britt was honored ...

Approximately 100 trillion neutrinos bombard your body every second—but you don’t notice these ghostly subatomic particles. Because they are electrically neutral and interact with other matter via the weak force, their detection is difficult—and the subject of challenging experimen...
