Each year, scientists with the Office of Science, at our national laboratories, and supported by the Office of Science at the nation’s colleges and universities, publish thousands of research findings in the scientific literature. About 200 of these are selected annually by their respective program areas in the Office of Science as publication highlights of special note.
Scientists catch details with atomic resolution, potentially helping design systems to use sunlight and water to produce fuels.
Far from being a mere spectator, solvents can play a larger role in chemical reactions, likely including those used in energy storage and biology.
Scientists determine the accuracy of computational methods used to study the sulfate radical approach to purifying water.
Particle crowding interferes with moving energy efficiently along promising molecular chains.
Hydrogel pores can modify the molecular-level motion of water and dissolved ions.
Researchers watch and measure in real time charge dynamics between layers of oxide materials, offering insights into solar cells.
Direct interactions dominate ion adsorption to aqueous graphene, a process central to vital processes in energy technology.
Soil moisture is key to determining plant growth and nutrient cycling in complex tundra landscapes.
Computer model offers detailed view of water cycling and complex Earth system dynamics.
Characterizing carbon stored in deeper sediments below soils is critical for understanding the stability and dynamics of Earth’s carbon pool.
