To better understand the rhizosphere -- a narrow zone around roots of intense microbial activity -- Ames Laboratory researchers are working to develop a model instrument that will enable scientists to look at the biological interactions in the rhizosphere in real time, in the field, a capability that doesn’t currently exist.

When traditional methods weren't producing the desired results, Ames Laboratory physicist Paul Canfield set about designing a better method to strain samples during flux growth. The result is a new, commercially available crucible system that bears Canfield's name.
Ames Laboratory has recently received new funding to study such materials by developing and applying new techniques in solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Researchers hope to use those techniques to find out how new energy materials function in order to optimize them.
A new research consortium at Ames Laboratory called CaloriCoolⓇ launched in 2016 with the idea that refrigeration could be radically better—cheaper, cleaner, more precise and energy-efficient—by abandoning vapor compression for something entirely new: a solid-state caloric system. And this research team plans to do it—including adoption into manufactured systems and products—within a decade.
