A Quantitative Method for In Situ Pump-Beam Metrology in 4D Ultrafast Electron Microscopy

In this work, we report a method for measuring spot size and focusing conditions of the femtosecond (fs) excitation laser in situ at the specimen location in 4D ultrafast electron microscopy (UEM). The method makes use of threshold laser ablation behaviors of thin amorphous carbon membranes. For Gaussian beam profiles and for ablation threshold fluence values, we analytically derive expressions describing the relationship between ablated hole size and the actual laser spot size. Using these expressions, we developed experimental procedures for characterizing the shape and spot size of the pump beam at the specimen. We demonstrate the viability of the approach for incident excitation wavelengths of 343 nm and 515 nm, thus illustrating the applicability of the method to a range of optical wavelengths without modification. Further, we show that by measuring ablated hole size as a function of focusing condition, a full metrological characterization of the Gaussian beam propagation properties can be performed. Finally, we find good agreement for spot sizes determined with this method and with those determined by extrapolation from measurements taken outside the microscope column. Overall, this method is a simple, cost-effective means for accurate and precise determination of key pump-beam parameters in situ at the specimen location in UEM experiments.

Incommensurate Spiral Spin Order in CaMn 2 Bi 2 Observed via High-Pressure Neutron Diffraction

Here, high-pressure neutron diffraction is employed to investigate the magnetic behavior of CaMn 2 Bi 2 in extreme conditions. In contrast to antiferromagnetic ordering on Mn atoms reported at ambient pressure, our results reveal that at high pressure, incommensurate spiral spin order emerges due to the interplay between magnetism on the Mn atoms and strong spin–orbit coupling on the Bi atoms: sinusoidal spin order is observed at pressures as high as 7.4 GPa. First-principles calculations with a noncollinear spin orientation demonstrate band crossing behavior near the Fermi level as a result of strong hybridization between the d orbitals of Mn and the p orbitals of Bi atoms. Competing antiferromagnetic order is observed at different temperatures in the partially frustrated lattice. Theoretical models have been developed to investigate spin dynamics. This research provides a unique toolbox for conducting experimental and theoretical magnetic and spin dynamics studies of magnetic quantum materials via high-pressure neutron diffraction.

Controlling Product Selectivity in Photochemical CO 2 Reduction with the Redox Potential of the Photosensitizer

The ability to selectively reduce CO 2 to a particular product or mixture of products is expected to play a key role in mitigation strategies aiming to alleviate the devastating impact of this greenhouse gas in our climate and oceans. Among those, the production of liquid solar fuels from CO 2 and H 2 O will likely need cascade strategies involving multiple catalysts carrying out different functions. This will require that the catalysts doing the initial CO 2 reduction steps deliver the right product or products to downstream catalysts. CO, H 2 and formate are the most common products in CO 2 reduction by molecular catalysts. Here, in this work, we demonstrate control over the selectivity of C 1 products in photochemical CO 2 reduction with the same catalyst, simply by changing the redox potential of the photosensitizer and/or the water concentration. Turnover numbers for CO generation with one of the photosensitizers under anhydrous conditions reached 85,000, one of the largest values reported to date. A combination of experimental results and DFT calculations show that control of the selectivity is achieved, in part, due to the interplay between regimes under kinetic or thermodynamic control. These regimes are largely dictated by the proton sources and the CO 2 reduction byproducts generated.

Rigor and Reproducibility in Electrocatalysis: Best Practices for Operando Studies

Operando measurements have rapidly expanded the scope of electrocatalysis by enabling direct observation of catalytic interfaces under working conditions and by linking structural, compositional, and spectroscopic observables to activity and selectivity. However, the growth of operando methods has outpaced the adoption of broadly shared experimental standards, creating persistent challenges in reproducibility, interpretation, and comparison across laboratories and platforms. This perspective synthesizes discussions from the 2025 National Science Foundation Workshop on Rigor and Reproducibility in Electrocatalysis and outlines a practical framework for the rigorous use of operando measurements in electrocatalysis. We highlight three recurring needs: careful implementation of complex methods to avoid overinterpretation; recognition that (subtle) differences in reactor architecture, hydrodynamics, and electrical boundary conditions can alter apparent kinetics and selectivity; and transparent reporting standards that enable meaningful cross-comparison without constraining measurement-specific cell innovation. Focusing on widely used techniques (including X-ray and vibrational spectroscopies, mass spectrometry, and electron microscopy), we discuss technique-specific pitfalls, cross-validation strategies, and recurring platform-agnostic considerations such as mass transport, current distribution, temporal-resolution mismatches, and catalyst evolution. This Perspective aims to strengthen the mechanistic inference and improve the reproducibility, comparability, and predictive value of operando electrocatalysis research.

Unconventional Charge Transport in MgCr 2 O 4 and Implications for Battery Intercalation Hosts

Ion transport in solid-state cathode materials prescribes a fundamental limit to the rates batteries can operate; therefore, an accurate understanding of ion transport is a critical missing piece to enable new battery technologies, such as magnesium batteries. Based on our conventional understanding of lithium-ion materials, MgCr 2 O 4 is a promising magnesium-ion cathode material given its high capacity, high voltage against an Mg anode, and acceptable computed diffusion barriers. Electrochemical examinations of MgCr 2 O 4 , however, reveal significant energetic limitations. Motivated by these disparate observations; herein, we examine long-range ion transport by electrically polarizing dense pellets of MgCr 2 O 4 . Our conventional understanding of ion transport in battery cathode materials, e.g., Nernst-Einstein conduction, cannot explain the measured response since it neglects frictional interactions between mobile species and their nonideal free energies. In this work, we propose an extended theory that incorporates these interactions and reduces to the Nernst-Einstein conduction under dilute conditions. This theory describes the measured response, and we report the first study of long-range ion transport behavior in MgCr 2 O 4 . We conclusively show that the Mg chemical diffusivity is comparable to lithium-ion electrode materials, whereas the total conductivity is rate-limiting. Given these differences, energy storage in MgCr 2 O 4 is limited by particle-scale voltage drops, unlike lithium-ion particles that are limited by concentration gradients. Future materials design efforts should consider the interspecies interactions described in this extended theory, particularly with respect to multivalent-ion systems and their resultant effects on continuum transport properties.

Temperature-mediated molecular ladder self-assembly employing Diels–Alder cycloaddition

Dynamic covalent self-assembly processes often exhibit poor capacities for error-correction owing to the relatively low connectivity rearrangement rates of dynamic covalent interactions and the common use of reaction conditions where the equilibrium state remains fixed. Here, we report a dynamic covalent self-assembly technique employing temperature, a conventional, externally-applied stimulus, to mediate the hybridization of peptoid oligomers bearing maleimide- and furan-based pendant groups to afford molecular ladders incorporating Diels–Alder adduct-based rungs. By raising or lowing the reaction temperature, this system enables the equilibrium state to be readily varied without altering reagent concentrations. Both triethylamine and the Lewis acidic scandium triflate were examined as candidate reaction catalysts; however, only scandium triflate increased the rate of single strand conversion. Additionally, as the Diels–Alder cycloaddition reaction does not liberate a small molecule, a registry-dependent mass change was effected by employing a base-catalyzed thiol-Michael addition reaction between any un-reacted maleimide pendant groups and a low molecular weight thiol to enable the number of Diels–Alder adduct rungs to be readily determined by mass spectrometry. Finally, by employing a slow temperature ramp from high to low temperature, approximating the thermal cycle employed for nucleic acid hybridization, sequence-selective hybridization between model, tetra-functional precursor strands was demonstrated.

Planarization of p -GaN surfaces on MOCVD grown V-defect engineered GaN-based LEDs

The large polarization barriers between the quantum wells and quantum barriers in long-wavelength GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) inhibit their performance by requiring excess driving voltages to reach standard operating current densities. Lateral injection of carriers directly into quantum wells is required to circumvent this issue. V-defects are naturally occurring inverted hexagonal defects with semipolar {$10\bar{1}1$}-plane sidewalls generated on surface depressions from threading dislocations. LEDs engineered to intentionally generate V-defects below the active region of the LED can achieve lateral carrier injection through the V-defect sidewalls and have already been able to demonstrate world record wall-plug efficiencies for LEDs in the green-red wavelengths. V-defects can be enlarged during kinetically limited growth where the growth rate of the c-plane GaN is faster than that of their sidewalls, leaving them unfilled. We report on the metal organic chemical vapor deposition growth conditions required to fill in V-defects with p-GaN during epitaxial growth of the LED post the active region. Circular transmission length measurements of Pd/Au contacts processed on p-GaN surfaces with various amounts of unfilled V-defects showed no significant difference in their sheet resistance and specific contact resistance. J–V measurements of LEDs grown with varying unfilled V-defect densities showed no significant difference in the forward bias regime. However, in the reverse bias regime, catastrophic breakdown occurred at markedly lower voltages for samples with larger unfilled V-defect densities. This suggests that unfilled V-defects may act as hotspots for device failure, and planarizing LED surfaces may help prevent early degradation of LED devices.

Modeling Isotope Separation in Electrochemical Lithium Deposition

Naturally occurring Li consists of two stable isotopes, 6 Li with an abundance of about 7.5%, and 7 Li making up the remainder with 92.5%. The development of a 6 Li enrichment technique, in terms of technical reliability and environmental safety to reach 6 Li future requirements, represents a key step in the roadmap for nuclear fusion energy supply worldwide. This paper uses finite element analysis-based models to simulate electrochemical Li isotope separation, which is an attractive method in terms of simplicity, safety, and scalability. In the model, we quantitatively analyze how different electrochemical factors including thermodynamics, charge-transfer kinetics, and diffusivities affect the separation process (separation factor), together with cell parameters, such as cell length and current density. The maximum separation factor of 1.128 could be obtained with the cell under the optimal thermodynamic, kinetic, and diffusive conditions, which is among the highest separation factors ever reported. Furthermore, these results will assist in designing the actual isotope separation setup with large separation factor and appropriate timing for sample collection.

Literature Data on Foam Fracturing Fluid

At the beginning of this project, the Temple team spent significant effort to collect data relevant to foam fracturing. More than 40 articles/reports were found in the open literature that reported the properties of aqueous foams under various testing conditions. The foam properties included viscosity and stability in terms of half-life, while were influenced by the foam quality, shear rate, temperature, pressure, as well as surfactants and additives used in making the foam base solutions. As a result, more than 1100 data points were collected, which are included in a master worksheet named "Literature data on Foam Fracturing Fluid".

Hanford Waste Treatment Plant LAB Facility Stack Effluent Monitoring: Sampling Probe Location Qualification Evaluation

The Waste Treatment Plant laboratory (LAB) facility stack monitor locations were qualified using scale model stacks to mitigate the risk of identifying that sampling locations do not meet the qualification criteria on the full-scale stack. As required by the American National Standards Institute/Health Physics Society (ANSI/HPS) N13.1-1999 standard, the scale model and its sampling location were geometrically similar to the actual stack and the Reynolds numbers for both the actual and model stacks were >10,000. An additional criterion is that the product of the hydraulic diameter and mean velocity (DV) of the full-scale stack must be between 1/6 DV and 6 DV of the scale model stack tests. Verification tests of the LAB stacks were performed at normal operating conditions. The minimum 1/6 DV value, along with the maximum 6 DV value from the scale model testing determines the range of conditions for which the full-scale stack may be operated and remain in compliance with the stack verification criterion. Based on these DV values, the corresponding stack flow rates for each of the LAB stacks are 625 to 47,237 scfm for LB-C2, 1,704 to 103,131 scfm for LB-S1, and 467 to 18,088 scfm for LB-S2. The remaining criteria for the stack verification to be considered valid involve the flow angle and velocity uniformity results. First, the flow angle at the full-scale stack must be =20°. Second, the velocity uniformity at the full-scale stack must be =20% coefficient of variance (COV). Finally, the velocity uniformity results for the actual and scale model stack tests must agree within 5% COV. These criteria were met through the full-scale stack tests at the LAB facility. Flow angle results were primarily less than 10 degrees, except for the LB-C2 Fan A results, which were an average of 17.6 degrees; all flow angle results were within the =20° criterion. The velocity uniformity results for each test condition averaged between 1.5 and 3.5% COV, which were all within the range of the target %COV values from the scale model tests. Based on these stack verification test results, the three LAB filtered exhaust stack sampling locations meet the qualification criteria provided in the ANSI/HPS N13.1-1999 standard for all fan operating configurations. This includes single-fan as well as dual-fan operations for LB-C2, each of the dual-fan operating conditions for LB-S1, and each single-fan operating condition for LB-S2. Further changes to the system configuration or operating conditions that are outside the bounds described in this report may require additional tests or analyses to determine compliance with the standard.

Hanford Waste Treatment Plant Low Activity Waste Facility Stack Effluent Monitoring - Sampling Probe Location Qualification Evaluation

The Hanford Tank Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant low activity waste (LAW) facility stack monitor locations were qualified using scale model stacks to mitigate the risk of identifying that sampling locations do not meet the qualification criteria on the full-scale stack. As required by the American National Standards Institute/Health Physics Society (ANSI/HPS) N13.1-1999 standard, the scale model and its sampling location were geometrically similar to the actual stack and the Reynolds numbers for both the actual and model stacks were >10,000. An additional criterion is that the product of the hydraulic diameter and mean velocity (DV) of the full-scale stack must be between 1/6 DV and 6 DV of the scale model stack tests. Verification tests of the LAW stacks were performed at normal operating conditions. The minimum 1/6 DV value, along with the maximum 6 DV value from the scale model testing determines the range of conditions for which the full-scale stack may be operated and remain in compliance with the stack verification criterion. Based on these DV values, the corresponding stack flow rates for each of the LAW stacks are 815–55,758 scfm for LV-S1, 980–112,078 scfm for LV-S2, 264–22,901 scfm for LV-S3, and 981–79,832 scfm for LV-C2. The remaining criteria for the stack verification to be considered valid involve the flow angle and velocity uniformity results. First, the flow angle at the full-scale stack must be =20°. Second, the velocity uniformity at the full-scale stack must be =20% coefficient of variance (COV). Finally, the velocity uniformity results for the actual and scale model stack tests must agree within 5% COV. These criteria were met through the full-scale stack tests at the LAW facility. Flow angle results were primarily less than 10°, except for one LV-S2 Fan A result, which was 13.2°; all flow angle results were within the =20° criterion. The velocity uniformity results for each test condition ranged between 1.5 COV and 9.2% COV, which were all within the range of the target % COV values from the scale model tests. Based on these stack verification test results, the four LAW filtered exhaust stack sampling locations meet the qualification criteria provided in the ANSI/HPS N13.1-1999 standard for all fan operating configurations. This includes single-fan operating conditions for LV-S1 and LV-S2, dual-fan operations for LV-S3 at both the continuous air monitor and record sampler locations, and both the single-fan as well as the dual-fan operations for LV-C2. Further changes to the system configuration or operating conditions that are outside the bounds described in this report may require additional tests or analyses to determine compliance with the standard.

An additional criterion is that the product of the hydraulic diameter and mean velocity (DV) of the full-scale stack must be between 1/6 DV and 6 DV of the scale model stack tests. Verification tests of the LAB stacks were performed at normal operating conditions. The minimum 1/6 DV value, along with the maximum 6 DV value from the scale model testing, determines the range of conditions for which the full-scale stack may be operated and remain in compliance with the stack verification criterion. A practical range for the full-scale stack qualification uses the average DV through 6 DV from the scale model tests to compute the corresponding flow rates. Table S1 lists the operating flow rates along with the average and maximum qualified stack flow rates for each of the LAB facility stacks. For each stack, the operating flow is below the maximum qualified stack flow, which means that the scale model test results are acceptable for stack qualification. The remaining criteria for the stack verification to be considered valid involve the flow angle and velocity uniformity results. First, the flow angle at the full-scale stack must be ≤20°. Second, the velocity uniformity at the full-scale stack must be ≤20% coefficient of variance (COV). Finally, the velocity uniformity results for the actual and scale model stack tests must agree within 5% COV. These criteria were met through the full-scale stack tests at the LAB facility. Flow angle results were primarily less than 10°, except for the LB-C2 Fan A results, which were an average of 13.7°; all flow angle results were within the ≤20° criterion. The velocity uniformity results for each test condition averaged between 1.5 and 4.1% COV, which were all within the range of the target percent coefficient of variation values from the scale model tests. Based on these stack verification test results, the three LAB filtered exhaust stack sampling locations meet the qualification criteria provided in the ANSI/HPS N13.1-1999 standard for all fan operating configurations. This includes single-fan as well as dual-fan operations for LB-C2, each of the dual-fan operating conditions for LB-S1, and each single-fan operating condition for LB-S2.

Review of Shock, Vibration, and Other Tests for Type IV Hydrogen Composite Pressure Vessels for Rail Use

Requirements specific to hydrogen rail transportation and its unique components are currently not well represented in safety codes and standards. Notably, one of the most important components of the system, the hydrogen storage vessel, may be subject to entirely different shock and vibration conditions compared to hydrogen tanks on road vehicles. This report focuses on how composite hydrogen tanks are tested for performance and how this may relate to these tanks being used on rail systems. The shock and vibration testing procedures that are relevant for hydrogen composite tanks used for rail applications have been identified, as well as some general testing requirements for hydrogen tanks and composite tanks.

Gas-Gap Calorimeter Sizing and Rating Tools for Heat Pipe Experimentation

Effective gas-gap calorimeter sizing and rating tools are required to design calorimeters that enable well-defined operating conditions, high cooling powers, and accurate calorimetry. The present report describes two tools utilizing Microsoft Excel and MathWorks MATLAB that enable the sizing and rating of gas-gap calorimeters with a He-Ar binary gas mixture in the gap. The Excel tools are two easy-to-use spreadsheets for calculating heat pipe operating temperature or He-Ar mole fractions given the required inputs. The MATLAB tool includes similar models with more robust solution algorithms along with sub-options for full-vacuum, static gas-gap, and forced circulation in the gas-gap. The accuracy of the developed tools were demonstrated by comparing with existing work in literature. The MATLAB tool was used for a parametric study to determine the gas-gap thickness, coolant gap thickness, coolant flow rate, and coolant inlet temperatures for the testing of a 3/4 in outer diameter heat pipe up to powers of 10 kW and temperatures of 1,000°C. The effects of heat pipe and calorimeter inner shell surface emissivities were investigated, considering the inability to control or accurately measure surface emissivities in most applications. It was found that controlling the He-Ar mole fractions provides a wide operating range for gas-gap thicknesses around ~ 0.042--0.090 in (~ 1.07--2.29 mm) for a surface emissivity range of 0.4--0.8, since conduction heat transfer is a significant fraction of the heat transfer across the gas-gap. In addition, it was found that turbulent flow in the coolant gap is needed at high input powers to prevent shell temperatures from approaching the boiling temperature of the water coolant. The parametric study resulted in choosing stainless steel tubes with an outer diameter and thickness of 1 x 0.065 in as the inner shell, and a 1-1/2 x 0.156 in as the outer shell of the calorimeter. Overall, this report presents the necessary information for the sizing and rating of gas-gap calorimeters with He-Ar mixtures for the testing of high-temperature heat pipes (~ 500--1,000°C).

Advanced Conductor Testing – 1431 kcmil Prysmian ACSS with E3X

Advanced conductors represent a significant evolution in transmission line technology. These conductors utilize innovative materials, such as composite cores, ultra-high-strength steel, and heat-dissipating coatings, to offer improved performance compared to traditional Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced (ACSR) designs. However, the deployment of these technologies has so far been limited. As each conductor comes with nuances in test setup and specifications, a standard test is not readily available to apply to all advanced conductors. Idaho National Laboratory’s (INL) Advanced Conductor Testing project, sponsored by the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Cybersecurity, Energy Security, and Emergency Response (CESER) and Office of Electricity (OE), focuses on developing and implementing testing protocols and plans for advanced conductor technologies to assess and demonstrate physical performance under varying operational conditions, including extreme environmental stressors such as wildfires. This report contains the fire testing results of a 1431 kcmil Prysmian ACSS with E3X conductor.
