The Department of Energy's (DOE) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) today signed a memorandum of understanding with Secat, Inc., of Lexington, Ky., to establish a vehicle to provide economic, environmental and energy benefits to the aluminum industry.
Dr. Witold Nazarewicz, professor of physics at the University of Tennessee, has been named deputy director for science at the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility at the Department of Energy's (DOE) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL).The Holifield facility is devoted to low-energy nuclear stru...
Ten more nature walks in the Community Adventure Rambles series will be offered during the months of May and June on the Department of Energy's (DOE) Oak Ridge Reservation (ORR).The program offers the general public chances to study and enjoy the sites and sounds of nature on the reservation. The p...
Dr. Lynne Parker of the Computer Science and Mathematics Division of the Department of Energy's (DOE) Oak Ridge National Laboratory is one of five recipients of the fourth annual Presidential Early Career Awards for Scientists and Engineers presented today at the White House.Parker, a group leader ...
A new breed of chemical sensors is expected to make practical the monitoring of drinking water, groundwater and streams near industrial discharge sites. Bioluminescent bioreporter integrated circuits developed by researchers in the Instrumentation and Controls Division and the University of Tennesse...
Paper laboratory notebooks may go the way of the typewriter with the invention of the DOE Electronic Notebook. It provides scientists and inventors with a system to input and retrieve information much like a paper notebook but has many additional advantages. Researchers will be able to share a commo...
Manufacturers of components made of plastics, polymers and metals may be able to reduce time and energy costs significantly with direct thermal systems developed by researchers in the Metals and Ceramics Division. The direct thermal systems use a non-conventional heating method that permits the appl...
ORNL researchers have built a "smart" transistor that takes advantage of their recent materials breakthrough in depositing a high-quality film of barium titanate on germanium. The device, which is the world's most powerful ferroelectric transistor, is "smart" because of barium titanate's semi-perman...
