A chrome-colored methane storage tank featuring the Mango Materials logo rises above a rooftop, with a cloudy blue sky and rainbow in the background. This image shows the cobalt defect fabricated by the study team. The green and yellow circles are tungsten and sulfur atoms that make up a 2D tungsten disulfide sample. The dark blue circles on the surface are cobalt atoms. The lower-right area highlighted in blue-green is a hole previously occupied by a sulfur atom. The area highlighted in reddish-purple is a defect—a sulfur vacancy filled with a cobalt atom. The scanning tunneling microscope (gray) is using electric current (light blue) to measure the defect’s atomic-scale properties. Close-up of almond shells Jen Wacker processes a sample of actinium at Berkeley Lab. Two smiling people in blue lab coats and safety glasses. The person on the right has their arm raised in the center of the frame presenting a nickel-sized sample. 2024 Cyclotron Road fellows: (top row) Mert Akin, Rakki Chandran, Rushin Contractor; (second row) Gabriella Dweck, Nosa Edoimioya, Advait Holkar, Nikita Khlystov; (third row) Hitesh Manglani, Pauliina Meskanen, Carla Pinzon; (fourth row) Kelly Redmond, Nicholas Sarai, John Slack, Nate Weger. The SOAR Telescope on Cerro Pachon in Chile. A woman, left, and a man look at visual data on several monitors with components of an electron microscope nearby. A person testing electronics that are part of the experimental setup used for making qubits in silicon in a lab. Computer screen with models displayed on screen. The image shows how this digital model complements CO2 reduction experiments to accelerate the development of improved reactors. A person in a navy top standing with their arms crossed in front of a hallway. Polly Arnold, Division Director, Chemical Sciences Division, with Matt Hernandez, Graduate Student Researcher.
