This scanning tunneling microscope image of a graphene sheet reveals that a Wigner crystal – a honeycomb arrangement of electrons, like an electron ice – has formed inside a layered structure underneath. (Image by Hongyuan Li and Shaowei Li, courtesy of …
A moving tape carries microscopic dabs of crystalized enzyme slurry, to which even tinier droplets of substrate are added via a second nozzle. The turbulence caused by the barrage of smaller droplets colliding with the larger one leads to rapid, even …
An artificial metalloenzyme based on the natural enzyme called P450 (gray structure). UC Berkeley chemists created a heme molecule (magenta) with an embedded iridium atom (red) that, in E. coli, was incorporated into P450 to execute a reaction unknown in …
Skyrmions are little vortexes or whirlpools created by the spins of electrons when magnetic fields are applied to certain magnetic materials. (Credit: Greg Stewart/SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, based on numerical simulations by Sergio Montoya/UC …
Scientists at Berkeley Lab’s Molecular Foundry used an electron microscopy technique called electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) to image the structure of pure titanium with a nanotwinned structure. Each color represents a unique orientation of the …
In this 2019 video, first author Shambhavi Pratap of the Technical University of Munich discusses how she studies thin-film solar energy materials using X-rays at the ALS. (Credit: Marilyn Sargent/Berkeley Lab) An exciting new solar material called …
Artist’s illustration of hydrodynamical behavior from an interacting ensemble of quantum spin defects in diamond. (Credit: Norman Yao/Berkeley Lab) – By Rachel Berkowitz In 1998, researchers including Mark Kubinec of UC Berkeley performed one of the first …
Berkeley Lab scientists Adam Weber (left) and Ahmet Kusoglu (Credit: Berkeley Lab) Earlier this summer, Energy Secretary Jennifer M. Granholm launched the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Energy Earthshots Initiative, and the first Energy Earthshot is …
Illustration by Jenny Nuss/Berkeley Lab A technology developed by scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) shows great promise for diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease before symptoms arise, potentially changing the course of research …
The successive interaction of a high-power laser pulse (red and blue) with a plasma mirror (not shown) and a secondary target (translucent light grey) could create the conditions to probe Strong Field Quantum Electrodynamics effects that are far beyond …
Jay Keasling, a senior faculty scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab), professor at UC Berkeley, and CEO of the Joint BioEnergy Institute (JBEI), has been named a Distinguished Scientist Fellow by the U.S. Department of Energy’s …
Inez Fung and Saul Perlmutter Astrophysicist Saul Perlmutter and climate scientist Inez Fung, both scientists at the Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab), have been appointed to the President’s Council of Advisors on …
Berkeley Lab researcher Chelsea Preble helped conduct experiments on the movement of indoor air contaminants. Here she is controlling the aerosol emissions device in a room configured like classroom. (Credit: Berkeley Lab) Having good room ventilation to …
This time-lapse video clip shows a supersonic Mach wave as it evolves in an expanding quark-gluon plasma. The computer simulation provides new insight into how matter formed during the birth of the early universe. (Credit: Berkeley Lab) Scientists have …
A 20-centimeter-long capillary discharge waveguide, used at BELLA Center to guide high-intensity laser pulses, and applied to set their record thus far for accelerating electrons: 8 billion electron volts (GeV). (Credit: Thor Swift/Berkeley Lab) – By Joe …
Researchers used artificial intelligence to generate hundreds of new protein structures, including this 3D view of human interleukin-12 bound to its receptor. (Photo credit: Ian Haydon) By Ashleigh Papp “The dream of predicting a protein shape just from …
This video shows steps of the enzymatic reaction that makes a double-ringed molecule, which is the structural starting point to produce molecules in a large class of antibiotics. (Credit: Patrick Rabe/Oxford University) Scientists who specialize in …
(Credit: iStock) Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) will be home to a cutting-edge quantum network testbed, thanks to a new five-year, $12.5 million funding award from the U.S. …
A wind farm in Spain (Credit: inakiantonana/iStock) Wind energy continues to see strong growth, solid performance, and low prices in the U.S., according to a report released by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and prepared by Lawrence Berkeley National …
Artist’s illustration of an atomic interferometer used in the proposed quantum gravity experiment. (Credit: Simca Bouma/UC Berkeley) Adapted from a NIST news release. Einstein’s theory of general relativity, which describes gravity as a curvature of space- …
