In the most powerful X-ray facilities in the world, scientists can analyze samples so small they contain only 10,000 atoms. Smaller sizes have proved exceedingly difficult to achieve, but a multi-institutional team has scaled down to a single atom.
Electrochemistry is a hot field. Argonne is elevating its role in the University of Illinois Chicago’s Next Generation Electrochemistry workshop, which attracts the next generation of scientists to study the quickly expanding field.
The Maria Goeppert Mayer Fellow discusses her research on atomic layer deposition and how the fellowship inspired her to continue advancing her career at Argonne.
In a study published in Physical Review B, researchers demonstrate that the 4f orbitals in superconducting layered nickelates play no role in the low energy physics.
