Argonne provides graduate students with high-level mentorship and first-hand experience on their theses and STEM journeys.

Argonne scientists use X-rays powered by the Advanced Photon Source and a custom-built characterization platform to peer into ion movements of perovskites, a potential new solar energy material, and shining UV rays on them to see how they degrade.

Argonne scientists have found a way to use the Argonne Tandem Linear Accelerator System to produce significant degradation in nuclear materials without the radioactivity associated with irradiation in a reactor

First Look shows undergraduate students from underrepresented groups what it’s like to be part of Argonne’s world-class community, while preparing them to join as interns.

Argonne researchers have invented a cathode material that replaces lithium with sodium ions and would be significantly cheaper. Sodium is far more naturally abundant and easily mined than lithium and is thus an attractive option for electric vehicles.

Argonne National Laboratory’s Theta supercomputer will be retired at the end of 2023, ending a productive run of enabling scientific breakthroughs in areas ranging from materials discovery to supernova simulations.

From unprecedented upgrades in computing and X-ray science to clean energy advancements, learn about developments at Argonne National Laboratory over the past year.
