The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory have jointly recruited Deep Jariwala, a nationally recognized leader in quantum materials and next-generation electronic devices, as the UT-ORNL governor’s chair for quantum devices.
Jennifer Morrell-Falvey, a senior staff scientist at ORNL, has been elected as a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, or AAAS, one of the world’s largest general scientific societies and publisher
From the discovery of a mutant mouse to the frontier of quantum computing and new molecular frameworks, ORNL research connects to three of the 2025 Nobel Prizes. The honors in medicine, physics and chemistry underscore how curiosity-driven research continues to drive global breakthroughs.
Nina Gottschling is a Wigner Fellow at ORNL whose research focuses on uncertainty quantification, inverse problems, and photonic quantum computing, with an emphasis on mathematical accuracy bounds for AI and scientific computing. She bridges rigorous mathematics, simulation and experiment to advance computational and quantum technologies.
Researchers at ORNL are helping to pave a path for the eventual discovery of dark matter. With new approaches to measurement in the quantum realm, using quantum optical sensing techniques, scientists are developing the methods required to achieve sight beyond sight — and detect this mysterious, invisible, yet seemingly ubiquitous substance.
Researchers at ORNL, working with international partners, have uncovered surprising behavior in a specially engineered crystal. Composed of tantalum, tungsten and selenium, the crystal demonstrates an unexpected atomic arrangement that hints at novel applications in spin-based electronics and quantum materials.
After more than 25 years of experience in condensed matter physics, as a student, researcher and in high-ranking executive roles at neutron scattering sources around the globe, Jon Taylor brings a wealth of experience and accomplishments to his new
Researchers at ORNL are pioneering the design and synthesis of quantum materials, which are central to discovery science involving synergies with quantum computation. These innovative materials, including magnetic compounds with honeycomb-patterned lattices, have the potential to host states of matter with exotic behavior.
At SC25, DOE Undersecretary Dario Gil joined national labs in spotlighting the accelerating integration of AI, quantum and HPC, while ORNL delivered multiple talks and demonstrations on emerging computational technologies. ORNL teams also won Best Paper, Best Student Paper and several additional honors.
After nearly two decades in the U.S. and international nuclear industry, Gale Hauck has turned her experience toward shaping its future. The veteran engineer, now at ORNL, is helping to guide the transition from large light water reactors to advanced reactor technologies that will define the next era of nuclear energy.
