This month's arrival at Saturn of the Cassini-Huygens spacecraft following a seven-year voyage was made possible partly by work done at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The spacecraft's instruments are powered by generators that convert heat from plutonium-238 fuel into electricity. ORNL developed and...
Semiconducting polymers that emit light of different colors for hours instead of minutes could have a bright future in the world of cryptography. What makes this possible is a technique developed by Mike Barnes of the lab's Chemical Sciences Division that produces uniformly oriented ...
