X-ray beams allowed researchers to “see” oxygen gas molecules adhere to a specially prepared electrode surface, an important step in the electrochemical reaction taking place in fuel cells. (Credit: Abel Fernandez/UC Berkeley) Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs …
Detailed X-ray measurements at the Advanced Light Source helped a research team co-led by Berkeley Lab, SLAC, and Stanford University reveal how oxygen seeps out of the billions of nanoparticles that make up lithium-ion battery electrodes. (Credit: …
Co-author Russell Neches constructed this graphic and used it to examine the number of viruses and viral families that are shared among cities. (Credit Russell Neches/Berkeley Lab) Vibrant cities around the world are made up of a unique blend of cultures, …
Berkeley Lab researchers use environmental sensors as part of their research on high-performance windows. (Credit: Thor Swift/Berkeley Lab) Windows make up 7% of the envelope area of a home but can account for 47% of the envelope heat loss. High- …

Berkeley Lab scientists Brett Helms (left) and Corinne Scown hold samples of PDK plastic, a unique new material that can be recycled indefinitely – a vast improvement over traditional plastics, of which less than 10% is recycled at all. Only a small …
Illustration of a supernova explosion. Such swirling masses of matter gave shape to the earliest forms of carbon – precursors to molecules some scientists say are connected to the synthesis of the earliest forms of life on Earth. (Credit: NASA images/ …
-By Ian Pong and Joe Chew The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) has passed the halfway mark in the multi-year process of fabricating crucial superconducting cables as part of a project to upgrade the …
