In a Journal of the American Chemical Society paper, scientists report that cyclic spacers offer more desirable properties compared to linear ones when designing 2D lead iodide perovskites with thermally-demanding optoelectronic applications.
In a Nature Physics paper, scientists demonstrate that mechanical resonators can be made into a nonlinear system with vibrations approaching the quantum ground state.
Argonne National Laboratory is tackling the world’s most challenging problems faster than ever before by using robotics, artificial intelligence and machine learning to automate science.
Cutting-edge ultrafast imaging by several methods revealed ultrafast mechanical motion tied to a change in magnetic state in a layered material. This magnetic effect could have applications in nanodevices requiring ultra-precise and fast motion control.
An Argonne team is working on digital twin software that will help the thousands of users of Department of Energy facilities employ their time there wisely.
In a Science paper, researchers report developing a cobalt-based catalyst to replace the expensive iridium-based catalyst used in electrolyzers for hydrogen and oxygen separation from water.
In a Computational Materials Science paper, scientists describe an automated workflow, Elastemp, to predict the temperature dependence of the thermal expansion coefficients and elastic constants for materials.
In a Nature paper, scientists report that they have determined both the elemental type and chemical state of single iron and terbium atoms using synchrotron X-rays.
The APS Upgrade project includes the construction of several new beamlines, but every existing beamline will be improved as well. Winarski is the man overseeing all of that work.
