JCESR has made significant strides with solid-state batteries as successors to today’s Li-ion batteries, including work on speeding up the motion of lithium ions in solid-state batteries using the paddlewheel effect.

Argonne data navigation tool enables scientists to unlock discoveries faster using specialized scientific data services.

Material could have implications for pharmaceutical mixing.

If a drop of creamer falls from a spoon into a swirling cup of coffee, the whirlpool drags the drop into rotation. But what would happen if the coffee had no friction — no way to pull the drop into a synchronized spin?

Argonne researchers lead highly detailed COVID-19 modeling efforts to understand how the virus spreads through populations.

Scientists find a unique knotted structure — one that repeats itself throughout nature — in a ferroelectric nanoparticle, a material with promising applications in microelectronics and computing.

The high cost of platinum catalysts used in hydrogen fuel cells limits the commercialization of fuel cell electric vehicles. Scientists are studying alternative catalysts to increase cost-effectiveness and maintain efficiency of hydrogen fuel cells.

Using two flat-top diamonds and a lot of pressure, scientists have forced a magnetic crystal into a spin liquid state, which may lead to insights into high-temperature superconductivity and quantum computing.

A team of researchers has used ultra-bright X-rays to analyze 13,000-year-old fossilized beetle wings to learn more about how insects evolved the tiny crystalline structures that give them iridescent colors.

Leaders from the world’s best X-ray facilities, including Argonne’s Advanced Photon Source, have developed a strategy for cooperatively combating COVID-19.
