Machine learning model speeds up assessing catalysts for decarbonization technology from months to milliseconds

sarah JonasResearch Results

Argonne researchers have developed an artificial intelligence-based model to greatly speed up the process for engineering a low-cost catalyst that converts biomass into fuels and useful chemicals with many possible applications.

Scientists turn single molecule clockwise or counterclockwise on demand

sarah JonasResearch Results

Argonne scientists report they can precisely rotate a single molecule on demand. The key ingredient is a single atom of europium, a rare earth element. It rests at the center of a complex of other atoms and gives the molecule many practical applications.
