Surface Diffusion Plays a Key Role in Defining the Shapes of Catalytic Nanoparticles
April 9, 2013 - Controlling the shapes of nanometer-sized catalytic and electrocatalytic particles made from noble metals such as platinum and palladium may be more complicated than previously thought.
Trees Used to Create Recyclable, Efficient Solar Cell
March 25, 2013 - Georgia Institute of Technology and Purdue University researchers have developed efficient solar cells using natural substrates derived from plants such as trees. Just as importantly, by fabricating them on cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) substrates, the solar cells can be quickly recycled in water at the end of their lifecycle.
Georgia Tech Tools Enable Groundbreaking Gas Research
March 1, 2013 - Scientists are now better able to examine rare methane gas samples recovered from deep beneath the seafloor using innovative tools developed by Georgia Tech.
Georgia Tech Power Cell Among Top 10 Physical Science Breakthroughs in 2012
December 14, 2012 - A power cell that directly converts mechanical energy to chemical energy – which can then be stored and converted to electrical energy – has been selected as one of 2012’s top breakthroughs in the physical sciences by Physics World magazine.
Gulf of Mexico Clean-Up Makes 2010 Spill 52-Times More Toxic
November 30, 2012 - If the 4.9 million barrels of oil that spilled into the Gulf of Mexico during the 2010 Deep Water Horizon spill was a ecological disaster, the two million gallons of dispersant used to clean it up apparently made it even worse – 52-times more toxic. That’s according to new research from the Georgia Institute of Technology and Universidad Autonoma de Aguascalientes (UAA), Mexico.
Georgia Tech Awarded $9.4M to Develop Energy Technology Solutions
November 28, 2012 - Researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology have been awarded three grants totaling more than $9 million from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Research Projects Agency – Energy (ARPA-E) to develop energy technology solutions.
Georgia Tech Collaborates with GE, Ford on Alternative Fuel Vehicle Research
November 21, 2012 - Researchers from Georgia Tech are partnering with GE and Ford Motor Co. to study ways to add greater efficiencies to electric driving and charging performance.
