Challenges and Opportunities for Basic Efficiency Measures in Low-Income Homes: A Southeast Alaska Case Study

Juneau, Alaska, is the state's capital city and aims to reach 80% renewable energy for the space heating and transportation sectors by 2045. This goal highlights a need to electrify both sectors to take advantage of the inexpensive hydropower available from the local electric utility, Alaska Electric Light and Power. To that end, researchers examined the feasibility of deploying storm windows via a case study of installing storm windows in two local low-income homes. Newer models of storm windows provide an extra layer of insulation over existing windows while preserving operability and views. They can also improve comfort and reduce noise. In addition to conducting pre- and post-installation air leakage tests, energy monitoring, and occupant interviews, researchers worked with the regional housing authority and a local builder to install the storm windows and replace inoperable windows in the two houses in 2021. The team encountered several challenges, including a lack of egress windows, energy data from a wide variety of heating systems, extremely leaky homes, and installation issues, such as windows that were not square. These results point to several barriers to the widespread deployment of window upgrades in the area and open the door to opportunities to design deployment programs that improve safety and efficiency.

Preparing large area of thermochromic nanocomposite films for smart window application

The challenges posed by high building energy bill necessitate proactive implementation of energy-efficient strategies to minimize the uses of both electricity and heating gas and promote the use of free solar energy sources. "Smart" window films/glass, leveraging thermochromic vanadium dioxide (VO 2 ), offer an adaptive approach to harness solar energy, significantly reducing the thermal load of buildings. This is achieved by reflecting the infrared portion of the solar spectrum through a phase transition in the monoclinic M-phase (M) of VO 2 induced by heating. In this study, a scalable continuous flow synthesis process invented by Argonne was employed to explore a wide parameter space, targeting the controlled synthesis of monoclinic VO 2 (M) nanoparticles with well-controlled sizes and morphologies. Additionally, a doping strategy and surface modifications were utilized for high-throughput tuning of the metal-to-insulator transition temperature. Strategies to enhance the solar modulation properties of VO 2 nanoparticles in polymer films were investigated through (i) morphological transformation from spherical to nanorod structures, (ii) surface modification with low refractive index ligands, and (iii) incorporation of additional thermochromic materials for improved solar energy modulation and aesthetically appealing colors in smart films. Furthermore, the study outlines scaling-up synthesis methods for VO 2 nanoparticles in a continuous flow reactor using hydrazine monohydrate. This comprehensive investigation provides valuable insights into the upscaling synthesis and design of advanced VO 2 /polymer composite smart window films with enhanced functionality, solar energy modulation and visible light transmittance, driving the technology a step close for industrial application.

Unveiling the Electrocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution Reaction Pathway on RuP 2 through Ab Initio Grand Canonical Monte Carlo

In this study, the high catalytic reactivity of ruthenium phosphide (RuP 2 ) has been identified by first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations for the electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Complex surface reconstructions are considered by applying the ab initio grand canonical Monte Carlo (ai-GCMC) algorithm, efficiently providing a sufficient phase-space exploration of possible surfaces. Combined with surface-phase Pourbaix diagrams, we are able to identify the actual surfaces that obtained under specific experimental environments, thus leading to a more accurate understanding of the nature of the active sites and the binding strength of adsorbates. Specifically, through hundreds of surface reconstructions and hydrogenation states generated with ai-GCMC, we identify the most favorable surface phases of RuP 2 under aqueous acidic conditions. We discover that the HER activity is determined by multiple surfaces with different stoichiometries within a narrow electrode potential window. Low HER overpotential (η) has been found for each of the identified surfaces, as low as 0.04 V. High H-coverage reconstructed surfaces have been discovered under acidic conditions, and the surface Ru sites introduced by additional Ru adatoms or exposed by P-vacancies serve as the active sites for HER based on their nearly reversible H binding. Furthermore, this work provides atomistic insights into the origin of high HER activity on RuP 2 by exploring the dynamic surface phases of electrocatalysts and features a generalizable method to explore the reconstructed/hydrogenated surface space as a function of experimental conditions.

Intern Poster

Digital Image Correlation (DIC) is an optical technique that combines image registration and tracking methods for accurate two-dimensional and three-dimensional changes in images. DIC software can be used to track the contour, deformation, and strain of a sample. In the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) at INL (Idaho National Laboratory) there exists a small working window of samples that can become irradiated. Hundreds of graphite disks called piggybacks have undergone this irradiation as part of the Advanced Reactor Technologies (ART) program. After irradiation, it is desirable to understand the change in tensile strength as a function of dose. Due to the limited space in the ATR, typical dog bone tensile tests reduce the number of graphite samples from hundreds to tens. However, there does exist an ASTM standard, D8289, which uses disc compression of graphite to estimate the tensile strength of the specimen with the Brazilian Disk test fixture. While only used as an estimate, which is typically off by a third, it is the purpose of this study to identify how to amend D8289 to remove the word "estimate" with the help of DIC.

Diffusion power spectra as a window into dynamic materials architecture

Chemical recycling of commodity and specialty polymers presents a multifaceted challenge for industrial societies. On one hand, macromolecular architectures must be engineered to yield durable products that, on the other hand, rapidly deconstruct to recyclable monomers under pre-determined conditions. Polymer deconstruction is a chemical process that requires deep understanding of molecular reactivity in heterogeneous media, where porous material architectures evolve in both space and time. To build this understanding, we develop herein experimental and analytical methods describing sets of diffusive eigenmodes that exist within time-varying, non-Euclidean boundary conditions, a situation commonly encountered in the reactive deconstruction of polymers where chain fragments splay, alter their local dynamics, and evolve in their confinement of reacting media. Diffusion power spectra, discerned experimentally by NMR, yield polymer and solvent frequency-domain velocity autocorrelation functions that are analyzed in the context of physical models for chemical reactions parameterized with fractal mathematics. The results connect local motion in polymers to chemical reactivity during acidolysis of circular elastomers.

Exploring the fusion power plant design space: comparative analysis of positive and negative triangularity tokamaks through optimization

The optimal configuration choice between positive triangularity (PT) and negative triangularity (NT) tokamaks for fusion power plants hinges on navigating different operational constraints rather than achieving specific plasma performance metrics. This study presents a systematic comparison using constrained multi-objective optimization with the integrated FUsion Synthesis Engine (FUSE) framework. Over 200 000 integrated design evaluations were performed exploring the trade-offs between capital cost minimization and operational reliability (maximizing q 95 ) while satisfying engineering constraints including 250 ± 50 MW net electric power, tritium breeding ratio > 1.1, power exhaust limits and an hour flattop time. Both configurations achieve similar cost-performance Pareto fronts through contrasting design philosophies. PT, while demonstrating resilience to pedestal degradation (compensating for up to 40% reduction), are constrained to larger machines (R 0 > 6.5 m) by the narrow operational window between L–H threshold requirements and the research-established power exhaust limit (P sol /R < 15 MW m –1 ). This forces optimization through comparatively reduced magnetic field (∼8 T). NT configurations exploit their freedom from these constraints to access compact, high-field designs (R 0 ~ 5.5 m, B 0 >12 T), creating natural synergy with advancing HTS technology. Sensitivity analyses reveal that PT’s economic viability depends critically on uncertainties in L–H threshold scaling and power handling limits. Notably, a 50% variation in either could eliminate viable designs or enable access to the compact design space. These results suggest configuration selection should be risk-informed: PT offers the lowest-cost path when operational constraints can be confidently predicted, while NT is robust to large variations in constraints and physics uncertainties.

Predicting Selective Laser Printing Print Quality of Polymer Powders through Melt Flow Index

Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) uses a precisely controlled laser to fuse polymer powder to build complex 3D shapes. While SLS covers a wide application space, the processing knowledge of polymer powder is limited, restricting the number of commercial powders available. This study serves to expand the processing knowledge of polypropylene and polyethylene in parallel with a “mature” SLS feedstock, nylon, through melt flow index (MFI) characterization. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) was used to explore the sintering window of the polymers. Polyethylene and polypropylene exhibited a relatively narrow sintering window between 4 – 5 °C, whereas the sintering window of nylon was much wider, between 23 – 24 °C. This suggests that the print quality between polyethylene and polypropylene would be similar; however, X-ray computed tomography revealed a higher volume of print defects, voids, and de lamination in polyethylene than in polypropylene. MFI analysis provided additional insight into the difference in print quality, as the MFI of polyethylene was 7.16 g/10 min, 9.95 g/10 min for polypropylene, and 17.23 g/10 min for nylon. MFI is inversely correlated to melt viscosity, and a low melt viscosity is desired for proper coalescing between the layers and particles. These results suggest that MFI is a promising tool, in conjunction with traditional thermal analysis, for screening candidate powder feedstocks for SLS and optimization of print parameters for novel powders.

Leptogenesis in automatic Nelson-Barr models

In this study, we numerically show that automatic Nelson-Barr models with new chiral fermions can simultaneously solve the strong CP problem and generate the observed baryon asymmetry via high-scale leptogenesis. In these models, all CP violation arises from a single spontaneous symmetry-breaking scale, linking the origin of quark and lepton CP phases. Using conservative assumptions and minimal dynamics, we identify a viable parameter window where successful leptogenesis occurs without spoiling the quality of the strong CP solution. Models with vector-like fermions face tension within this leptogenesis scenario. A key prediction is a correlation between the baryon asymmetry and the induced QCD vacuum angle shift. Remarkably, we find that the majority of the available parameter space is within reach of current and future nucleon EDM experiments.

Plasma performance and operational space with an RMP-ELM suppressed edge

Abstract The operational space and global performance of plasmas with edge-localized modes (ELMs) suppressed by resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) are surveyed by comparing AUG, DIII-D, EAST, and KSTAR stationary operating points. RMP-ELM suppression is achieved over a range of plasma currents, toroidal fields, and RMP toroidal mode numbers. Consistent operational windows in edge safety factor are found across devices, while windows in plasma shaping parameters are distinct. Accessed pedestal parameters reveal a quantitatively similar pedestal-top density limit for RMP-ELM suppression in all devices of just over 3 × 10 19 m −3 . This is surprising given the wide variance of many engineering parameters and edge collisionalities, and poses a challenge to extrapolation of the regime. Wide ranges in input power, confinement time, and stored energy are observed, with the achieved triple product found to scale like the product of current, field, and radius. Observed energy confinement scaling with engineering parameters for RMP-ELM suppressed plasmas are presented and compared with expectations from established H and L-mode scalings, including treatment of uncertainty analysis. Different scaling exponents for individual engineering parameters are found as compared to the established scalings. However, extrapolation to next-step tokamaks ITER and SPARC find overall consistency within uncertainties with the established scalings, finding no obvious performance penalty when extrapolating from the assembled multi-device RMP-ELM suppressed database. Overall this work identifies common physics for RMP-ELM suppression and highlights the need to pursue this no-ELM regime at higher magnetic field and different plasma physical size.

Sculpting 2D Crystals via Membrane Contractions before and during Solidification

When phospholipids crystallize within the otherwise fluid membranes of giant unilamellar vesicles, the resulting molecularly thin “2D” solids exhibit great variety in their morphology evolution. For example, within membranes containing moderate amounts of the crystallizing component, crystals grow with a fixed morphology depending on vesicle size. Conversely for membranes containing large amounts of the crystallizing species, we find small compact crystals on vesicles of all sizes. However, on large vesicles, growing crystals sprout flower petals that lengthen progressively. These behaviors result from two combined mechanisms: first, like other 2D solids, the shear rigidity of phospholipid crystals renders them intolerant to morphologies with nonzero Gaussian curvature. As a result and especially at elevated membrane tension, the cost of bending elasticity is reduced at the expense of line energy by the formation of flowers as opposed to compact crystals. Second, the composition-dependent tension rise during cooling relaxes via water permeation of the membrane with a time constant scaling as R2. The amount of crystal formed for a small decrease in temperature determines this composition-dependent increase in stress from thermal contractions versus solidification. Surface Evolver computations were motivated using the predicted tension evolution to develop a processing space that maps to experimental observations for initial and growing crystal morphology. Important variable groups are identified, including a scaled ratio of bending to line energy, a vesicle-size-independent group for membrane contractions, and a time constant for stress relaxation. Though processing stresses ultimately relax, the crystal morphology persists well beyond the processing window.

A structural and electrochemical study of perfluoropolyether-poly(ethylene oxide) solid polymer electrolytes

Solid polymer electrolytes offer attractive safety, processability, and interfacial adhesion for enabling high–energy solid-state lithium batteries, but they are often limited by narrow oxidative stability windows and low lithium-ion transference numbers. In an attempt to broaden the electrochemical stability window and increase lithium-ion transference number of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO)-based solid polymer electrolytes, we produce an optically clear, crosslinked membrane of PEO and perfluoropolyether (PFPE) using a mixed solvent method and subsequently infuse the membrane with a lithium salt. Structural and thermal analyses reveal nanoscale phase separation between fluorocarbon and hydrocarbon domains with characteristic spacings of 7–8 nm and an elevated glass transition for the hydrocarbon phase. Consistent with this, PFPE-containing membranes exhibit substantially lower ionic conductivity than PEO analogs (dry and plasticized). The transference number and electrochemical stability are similar to pure PEO. These results demonstrate that fluorination implemented as segregated nanoscale domains does not deliver the anticipated transport or stability benefits; instead, phase separation increases tortuosity and suppresses hydrocarbon-phase dynamics. The work underscores the importance of fluorine placement and morphology control, guiding the design of partially fluorinated solid polymer electrolytes toward architectures that avoid detrimental nanoscale phase separation.

Decoupling plasma, catalyst, and gaseous mechanisms for non-oxidative methane conversion

Direct non-oxidative methane (CH 4 ) conversion to value-added hydrogen (H 2 ) and C 2 products remains hindered by fundamental catalytic scaling constraints and rapid surface deactivation at elevated temperatures. Plasma-enabled catalysis offers a promising route to overcome the thermodynamic and kinetic barriers of direct non-oxidative methane upgrading at mild conditions, yet control over C–C product selectivity and catalyst stability remains elusive. Here, we establish a unified mechanistic framework including Langmuir–Hinshelwood (L–H) and Langmuir–Rideal (L–R) mechanisms that disentangles the roles of plasma excitation (including vibrationally activated species and radicals), surface temperature (T sur ), and catalyst binding energy in steering CH 4 conversion to H 2 and C 2 hydrocarbons. Through a combination of density functional theory (DFT) informed microkinetic modeling, in situ and ex situ surface characterization, and product quantification under dielectric barrier discharge conditions, we show that vibrationally excited CH 4 lowers activation barriers selectively for dissociative chemisorption, enabling surface activation across a wide range of transition metal catalysts at low thermal energy input. We find that once CH 4 is dissociatively chemisorbed, the branching between C 2 H 2 , C 2 H 4 , and C 2 H 6 is governed by surface properties (carbon binding energy, T sur , etc), regardless of plasma excitation. The DFT informed microkinetic model decouples the effects of molecular activation from surface properties and indentifies operating windows that maximize target yields while suppressing carbon accumulation and subsequent catalytic inactivation. Experiments on polycrystalline Cu/Al 2 O 3 , Ni/Al 2 O 3 , and Pt/Al 2 O 3 validate these predictions, revealing catalyst-dependent branching toward ethane or ethylene and distinct deactivation profiles. We unify these trends into a generalized three-dimensional plasma-thermal-catalytic design space, from which reduced descriptors such as T vib /T sur in the limit of vibrationally excited L–H pathways emerge as predictive metrics. These results enable rational tuning of methane conversion pathways and unlock selective C 2 formation using earth-abundant metals under mild plasma conditions.

Understanding LIB Battery Electrodes Through Classical Electrochemical Interface Theory

Classical models of the electrochemical interface can be applied to complex and dynamic electrodes to understand important mechanisms that are relevant to device-level phenomena like calendar aging or cycle life. Here, we show that negative alloy electrodes with wide electrochemical windows cannot be assumed to have static interfaces throughout all states of charge. Under high states of charge, the interface -including the solid electrolyte interphase - has characteristics that resemble a highly polarized electrode far from the point of zero charge. Under these conditions, the interface can be understood through the Helmholtz model. At lower states of charge, the interface capacitance decreases and the space charge layer length increases. This transformation resembles a metal electrode approaching the point of zero charge which is understood through the Gouy-Chapman-Stern-Grahame model of the electrochemical interface. This transformation happens at both silicon and carbon-coated silicon interfaces. From voltage-limited cycling experiments, in the limit of the diffuse double layer, the silicon electrode impedance rises significantly in the first few cycles. This rise is related to the continuous electrochemical reduction of electrolyte components from an interface that is not electronically screened from the electrolyte. In other words, an electrode interface for batteries should resemble a 'Helmholtz-like' structure.

Characterization of compositional variation and solidification condition on rapid solidification behavior of beta stabilized titanium

Rapid solidification (RS) is a field of study that has increased in importance due to the rise of additive manufacturing (AM) techniques. The breakdown of equilibrium at the solid-liquid interface results in an inability to use traditional solidification models that have been applied to great success in casting. As such, there is a current need for a high-throughput testing method to screen alloys at rapid solidification conditions without the significant cost for powder atomization. In this work, twin hammer splat quenching (SQ) is utilized and theoretically developed as a technique uniquely placed to test alloy systems for AM applications. Using analytical thermal spray models and numerical heat transfer simulations, the cooling rate and solidification conditions of splat quenching are compared across several parameters to evaluate the key parameters for generating cooling rates relevant to AM process. Once a framework for the cooling rates and relevancy of SQ are developed, SQ was used to process alloy compositions in the Ti5553 alloy space (AMS 7026) to study the formation of detrimental secondary phases occurring upon rapid quenching from the melt. A martensitic phase is found to occur at the lower end of the standard, but the composition listed in the standard were found to be safe. Finally, the rapid solidification behavior of Ti-5553 is evaluated by comparing splat quenching, laser welding, and plasma atomization that offer a wide window of solidification conditions. The segregation and solidification structure are analyzed and compared to models to provide a deeper understanding of the solidification behavior of beta stabilized titanium alloys.

Navigating high-dimensional process-structure–property relations in nanocrystalline Pt-Au alloys with machine learning

For decades, materials scientists have relied on the process-structure–property paradigm to guide investigations into material behaviors. Traditional studies often examine a limited number of process-structure–property variables, striving to elucidate mechanisms governing material response. However, this approach is time consuming and can limit exploration, as well as the discovery of process-structure–property relations in novel materials. In this paper, we combined combinatorial sputter deposition and multi-modal high-throughput materials characterization with feedforward neural networks to establish high-dimensional process-structure–property relations in Pt-Au alloys, yielding nanocrystalline alloys with high hardness and low resistivity relevant to electrical contact switch applications. We mapped three indicators of process conditions (composition and two atomic deposition characteristics) onto four indicators of material structure (X-ray diffraction, film thickness, density, and surface roughness) and two indicators of material properties (hardness and resistivity), resulting in 784 unique combinations evaluated over a 13-dimensional space. The neural networks predicted Pt-Au alloys with 18–24 at.% Au, when deposited at specific conditions, to have a nanoindentation hardness up to 7.2 GPa. This high hardness value, comparable to some steels, represents a 3-fold improvement in hardness over “hard gold”, a commonly used electrical contact alloy, while maintaining requisite electrical conductivity. The neural network models provide an avenue to identify expected process windows capable of maximizing material performance.

Aerogel with Unparalleled Performance and Cost-Effectiveness for All Insulation Needs (CRADA Final Report)

Westwood Aerogel investigated the reproducible production of an ambiently or electromagnetic spectrum assisted drying of extremely porous aerogel materials. Traditional aerogel processing is limited by low throughput and scalability due to supercritical drying. Westwood Aerogel’s advanced manufacturing process enables commercialization and deployment at scale, making aerogel materials more accessible to a range of industries and applications. We focused on shifting from the lab scale environment to manufacturing prototypes. The initial manufacturing model is based on the float glass process, which is the industry standard for glass window production, and the paper drying process. By incorporating an ambient drying process a continuous line model can be used from start to finish. The project team worked to develop a continuous manufacturing system to scale-up and reduce costs while maintaining the lightweight and insulative properties of aerospace-grade aerogel. While aerogels are extremely insulative, lightweight, and thin materials (making them ideal insulators across application spaces), high costs and stagnant innovation have hampered their wider adoption. Traditional manufacturing of aerogel requires supercritical extraction of pore fluid to obtain highly insulating materials, which is an energy intensive batch process and limits aerogel production output. Westwood Aerogel’s proprietary ambient drying process enables the continuous production of highly insulative aerogel materials without the use of supercritical extraction.

Direct estimation of the density of states for fermionic systems

Simulating time evolution is one of the most natural applications of quantum computers and is thus one of the most promising prospects for achieving practical quantum advantage. Here, we develop quantum algorithms to extract thermodynamic properties by estimating the density of states (DOS), which is a central object in quantum statistical mechanics. We introduce several key innovations that significantly improve the practicality and extend the generality of previous techniques. First, our approach allows one to estimate the DOS only for a specific subspace of the full Hilbert space. This is crucial for fermionic systems, since both canonical and grand canonical ensemble thermal equilibrium properties depend on subspaces of fixed number. Second, in our approach, by time evolving very simple, random initial states, such as randomly chosen computational basis states, we can exactly recover the DOS on average. Third, due to circuit-depth limitations, we only reconstruct the DOS up to a convolution with a Gaussian window—thus all imperfections that shift the energy levels by less than the width of the convolution window will not significantly affect the estimated DOS. For these reasons, we find the approach is a promising candidate for early quantum advantage as even short-time, noisy dynamics can yield a semiquantitative reconstruction of the DOS (convolution with a broad Gaussian window), while early fault-tolerant devices will likely enable higher-resolution DOS reconstruction through longer time evolutions. We demonstrate the practicality of our approach in representative Fermi-Hubbard and spin models and indeed find that our approach is highly robust against algorithmic errors in the time evolution and against gate noise. We further demonstrate that our approach is compatible with noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) computing NISQ-friendly variational techniques, introducing and leveraging a technique for variational time evolution.
