Detergent-assisted Fabrication of Multifunctional Nanomaterials
Application of ordinary detergents can produce uniform sizes and shapes of multifunctional materials at the nanoscale level, boosting their performance. Possible uses of the technique range from environmental cleanup to cancer treatment, while reducing costs. Watch the video.
Large Field-of-View Bench Top 3-D X-Ray Phase Contrast Imaging System
This system makes it possible to image low-density materials such as the human body, polymers, epoxies, fillers, foams, plastics and other materials with as much as a thousand times more sensitivity than ordinary X-ray imaging. Watch the video.
SWiCK Zoom
SWiCK Zoom, a true optical zoom method that requires low power and no macroscopic parts to achieve millisecond-timescale changes to optical resolution and field of view, won in the analytical/test category. The project was co-developed with the Naval Research Laboratory. Watch the video
LAMMPS: Atomistic Simulation of Materials
LAMMPS is a widely-used molecular dynamics simulation package that models materials from the atomistic to mesoscale to continuum scales. It can be run on desktop computers to the largest supercomputers to explore the structural and dynamic properties of materials and provide insights not easily accessible to experimental observation. Watch the video.
Power API
Power API, a standardized interface for power measurement and control for all types of computing systems, won in the IT/electrical category and received a special recognition for corporate responsibility. Watch the video.
