Anthony Roberts, materials engineer, prepares a fuel canister for a remote-controlled tank demonstration. Nanogalvanic aluminum-based powder goes into the canister first, followed by water or any water-based li More
Dr. Chad Hornbuckle, a materials scientist with the U.S. Army Research Laboratory at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, specializes in atom probe tomography, which analyzes ceramics or metal 1,000 times smaller More
Research physicist Jake Fontana stands next to the Nanoparticle aeRosoL (NRL) instrument at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory. The benchtop instrument measures the behavior of gases with particles of nanometer More
Army scientists explore materials at the nano-level with the goal of finding stronger or more heat-resistant properties to support the Army of the future. (U.S. Army photo by David McNally)
The Nanoparticle aeRosoL (NRL) instrument invented by researchers from the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory measures the behavior of gases with particles of nanometer size in real time on the benchtop. The patent More
Inside a sealed, super-cooled vacuum, Army scientists apply a laser or a voltage pulse, the scientists ionize the atoms within the small tip causing the individual ions to field evaporate from the surface. The More
Roberts watches the pressure gauge on a fuel canister, waiting for the nanogalvanic aluminum-based powder to react with water, releasing hydrogen to power a remote-controlled tank in a demonstration. Scientists More
