Argonne & FSU Scientists Discover Structure Dynamics to Improve Solar Cells
To help bring halide perovskites – promising materials for solar cells – from the lab to commercialization, researchers at Florida State University and DOE’s Argonne National Laboratory examined them under real-world conditions. The scientists found that light and electric fields can create changes in the material’s basic properties and affect the lattice structure that’s crucial […]
CHESS is accepting proposals for beamtime
CHESS provides beamtime to users for typically 125 days per year distributed over three cycles.
Advanced Light Source Beamline Assists Ames Laboratory’s Titan Atmosphere Research
A team led by scientists from the NASA Ames Research Center simulated the complex chemistry that may be occurring in the hazy atmosphere of Saturn’s largest moon, Titan. The work provides new insights into what future Titan probes may encounter upon arrival and what the atmosphere of Earth may have been like eons ago. The […]
Aug 31 Argonne Leadership Computing Facility Polaris System Workshop
On August 31 Argonne Leadership Computing Facility is hosting a webinar on the HDF5 parallel file system, its possible effects on HDF5 performance, and a summary of tools useful for performance investigations. HDF5 is a data model, file format, and I/O library that has become a de-facto standard for HPC applications to achieve scalable I/O […]
NSLS-II, CFN, APS & NERSC Collaborate on Conversion of CO2 and Ethane Research
In their study, the researchers solved the challenge of discovering the right catalytic pathway for using ethane to convert CO2 into gas for generating electricity, liquid fuels, or ethylene.Converting carbon dioxide (CO2) and ethane—an underutilized component of natural gas—into chemicals with higher value would allow us to make use of a potent greenhouse gas and […]
