Lead researcher Aindrila Mukhopadhyay holds a vial of purified indigoidine crystals. (Credit: Marilyn Chung/Berkeley Lab) Often, the findings of fundamental scientific research are many steps away from a product that can be immediately brought to the …
Biosciences Area Associate Lab Director Mary Maxon caps off the Integrative Genomics Building dedication festivities by leading the ceremonial “snipping” of a double-helix-inspired ribbon. From left to right: Mary Maxon; Sean Simpson, CEO and co-founder of …
Nobumichi Tamura, a staff scientist at Berkeley Lab’s Advanced Light Source (ALS), studies a rare crystal sample at ALS Beamline 12.3.2. An X-ray technique at this beamline was key in a study that helped to confirm the discovery of the mineral ognitite. ( …
A research team led by Ali Javey of Berkeley Lab has developed a practical method of brightening TMDCs for device applications without having to chemically treat the materials for defects. (Credit: Der-Hsien Lien et al./Berkeley Lab) Atomically thin …
(Credit: RapidEye/iStock) Scientists have long sought to mimic the process by which plants make their own fuel using sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water through artificial photosynthesis devices, but how exactly substances called catalysts work to generate …
A study led by Wenhao Sun of Berkeley Lab features a large, interactive stability map of the ternary nitrides, highlighting nitride compositions where experimental discovery is promising in blue. (Credit: Wenhao Sun/Berkeley Lab) Formed by elements …
The Advanced Photoinjector EXperiment (APEX) and test beamline at Berkeley Lab, pictured here in 2016, served as a prototype for the LCLS-II X-ray laser upgrade project. (Credit: Roy Kaltschmidt/Berkeley Lab) The successful test of the LCLS-II electron gun …
A new technique developed by researchers at Berkeley Lab, in collaboration with Dow and Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands, is providing atomic-resolution details about magnesium chloride, a material involved in the production of the …
Junsong Lin, an affiliate in Berkeley Lab’s Physics Division and UC Berkeley postdoctoral researcher, holds components of a low-mass dark matter detector that is now in development. (Credit: Marilyn Chung/Berkeley Lab) The search for dark matter is …
At Gillin’s Beach in the Mahaulepu watershed, signs were frequently posted warning beach goers not to swim. However, the team found no evidence of any contamination during an entire year year of monitoring. (Credit: Eric Dubinsky/Berkeley Lab) One of the …
The actinides make up the bottom row of the periodic table. (Elements outlined in black were discovered at Berkeley Lab.) (Credit: Berkeley Lab) The actinides – those chemical elements on the bottom row of the periodic table – are used in applications …
Berkeley Lab scientists (from left) Deborah Agarwal, Juliane Mueller, Reetik Sahu, Bhavna Arora, and Charuleka Varadharajan are developing a computational tool for smarter groundwater management. (Credit: Marilyn Chung/Berkeley Lab) The overpumping of …
Image of the first beam of photoelectrons for a next-generation LCLS-II X-ray laser housed at SLAC. Berkeley Lab designed and built the electron gun supplying the laser’s electrons. (Credit: SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory) This press release was …
The Norman Wastewater Reclamation Facility (Courtesy University of Oklahoma) Wastewater is treated by an activated sludge process in municipal wastewater treatment plants and returned to the environment for use. This treatment process has been used for …
Scientists discover a surprising first step in the chemical transformation of carbon dioxide using a silver catalyst. (Credit: Berkeley Lab) Fossil fuels are the lifeblood of modern societies, but their increased use releases carbon dioxide, a climate- …
