Pacific Northwest National Laboratory News
University of Washington to Lead Center for Optoelectronic Materials Integration
SEATTLE, Sept. 14, 2021 — The NSF has issued a five-year, $25 million Science and Technology Center grant to fund the Center for Integration of Modern Optoelectronic Materials on Demand (IMOD), a collaboration of scientists and engineers at 11 universities led by the University of Washington (UW). IMOD research will look at new semiconductor materials and scalable manufacturing processes for new optoelectronic devices for applications ranging from displays and sensors to a technological revolution, under
LIBS, 2D Spectral Imaging Combine to Improve Isotopic Measurements
WASHINGTON, D.C., Feb. 3, 2021 — Pacific Northwest National Laboratory researchers have improved laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) measurements of hydrogen isotopes in what they characterized as “industrial important” alloys. In optimizing an ultrafast...
Energy Department Labs Close to Thousands of Visitors
WASHINGTON, D.C., March 19, 2020 — The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has begun to restrict access and to ramp down activities at its national laboratories in response to the coronavirus pandemic. The labs serve more than 30,000 visiting researchers each year. Of the 10 Office of...
Video: Cell Phones Become Microscopes with 3-D Printing
RICHLAND, Wash., Sept. 17, 2014 — 3-D printing could help turn cell phones into high-powered microscopes, enabling them to identify biological samples in the field. A team at the U.S. Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) used a 3-D printer to create a...
Superbright X-Ray Free-Electron Lasers Find Missing Proteins
RICHLAND, Wash., and LIVERMORE, Calif., Feb. 21, 2014 — A protein's shape is key to understanding how it causes disease or toxicity. Traditionally, capturing quality x-ray snapshots of a protein has required as many as 1 billion copies of the same protein, stacked into a neat crystal. This is no longer...
Advances in Standoff Detection Make the World Safer
Apr 1, 2013 — An abundance of new research and development in optical detection at a distance is increasing the ability of governments and military organizations to more efficiently identify and categorize explosives, biological agents and other threats....
Steward Joins Orb Optronix
KIRKLAND, Wash., Sept. 25, 2012 — Former Pacific Northwest National Laboratory Manager Heidi Steward has been named director of sales and marketing at Orb Optronix.
Diatom Biosensor Could Detect Chemicals in Water
SEQUIM, Wash., March 30, 2012 — A biosensor made of fluorescent proteins that are embedded in the shell of microscopic marine algae called diatoms could help detect chemicals in water samples. The device could help produce nanomaterials that can solve sensing, catalysis and...
Laser/Ion-Funnel Mass Spec Mars-bound?
RICHLAND, Wash., March 1, 2011 — Finding life on Mars could get easier with a creative adaption to a common analytical tool that can be installed directly on the robotic arm of a space rover. In a recent paper published online in the journal Planetary and Space Science, a...
Sandia Awarded $2.6M in DoE Grants
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., Nov. 9, 2010 — Sandia National Laboratories announced that four of its researchers have received three-year grants totaling $2.6 million from the Department of Energy’s Office of Science to pursue computational research proposals that would help to create an...
Microreactors Advance Solar Cells
CORVALLIS, Ore., April 23, 2010 — A new technology that uses continuous flow microreactors to produce thin film absorbers for solar cells could significantly reduce the cost of solar energy devices and reduce material waste, according to engineers from Oregon State University and...
US DoE helps flip the switch on LED streetlights
Oct 1, 2009 — Most streetlights in the US are high-pressure sodium, but the many advantages of LEDs are pushing municipalities to make the switch – or at least to think about it. Because it is such a big chunk of change to lay out at the start, the US Department...
Big Boost for Blue OLEDs
SALT LAKE CITY, March 23, 2009 – Researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory reported that they have designed, synthesized and tested new , more efficient host materials for blue phosphorescent organic LEDs that improve the power efficiency of such OLEDs by at least 25...
A Molecule’s Solo Sparkle
RICHLAND, Wash., Sept. 25, 2008 – While a group of fluorescent molecules may appear to work synchronously, a closer look reveals maverick molecules flash and work at varying rates, according to scientists at the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL)....
'Googling' Brain Proteins with 3-D Goggles
RICHLAND, Wash., Feb. 16, 2007 -- The Allen Brain Atlas, a genome-wide map of the mouse brain on the Internet, has been hailed as “Google of the brain.” The atlas now has a companion of the brain’s working molecules, a sort of pop-up book of the proteins, or...
Technology Transfer Awards Go to PNNL
Feb 15, 2006 — RICHLAND, Wash., Feb. 15 -- The Federal Laboratory Consortium announced it is honoring Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) with four 2006 Awards for Excellence in Technology Transfer for the laboratory’s development and commercialization of...
Nerve-Gas Fingerprints Etched in Light
Nov 10, 2003 — RICHLAND, Wash., Nov. 10 -- In 1995, hundreds of Tokyo subway rescuers were exposed to the deadly nerve gas sarin hours before police confirmed its identity. Earlier this year, soldiers in Iraq worried about a similar fate. Pacific Northwest...
