Ames National Laboratory scientists have developed a one-step process that uses a catalyst to break down the polymers that make up plastic and convert them into diesel.
Members of the Center for the Advancement of Topological Semimetals (CATS) attended the American Physical Society (APS) March Meeting in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
On stage in Ames, Iowa, Ira Flatow talks with Dr. Ikenna Nlebedim and Dr. Denis Prodius, two materials scientists from the Critical Materials Institute at the Ames National Laboratory who have developed a new acid-free method to recycle rare earth metals found in magnets.
Facilities and Engineering Services
This project focuses on developing fundamental bioinspired approaches for creating self-assembled mesoscale two- and three-dimensional (2D and 3D) assemblies of meta-atoms that can serve as functional optical metamaterials.
This FWP develops new theories and computational methods to significantly accelerate scientific discoveries to support the mission of the Department of Energy’s Basic Energy Science and of Ames National Laboratory.
Our major research goal is to uncover the underlying electronic, atomic, and microscopic interactions in novel rare-earth intermetallic materials with extraordinarily strong coupling between the magnetic, electronic, and lattice degrees of freedom that drive remarkable responsiveness to external stimuli, like temperature, pressure, and magnetic field.
The proposed research holds the potential to significantly advance our comprehension and manipulation of coherence and dynamic processes that mediate exotic transport phenomena, collective behaviors, and quantum functionalities.
This mission of the MIEQM FWP is to understand phenomena when topological electronic bands on frustrated lattices are intertwined with magnetism.
This project explores the foundational theoretical understanding, numerical analysis, design, fabrication, and characterization of metamaterials, and their feasibility for technological applications, and targets current fundamental problems and opportunities in controlling light with matter and matter with light.
