Propelling atomically layered magnets toward green computers

The flow of electrical current in the bottom crystalline slab (representing WTe2) breaks a mirror symmetry (shattered glass), while the material itself breaks the other mirror symmetry (cracked glass). The resulting spin current has vertical polarization that switches the magnetic state of the top 2D ferromagnet.

“Life is short, so aim high”

“I want to pass on to my kids a world at least as lovely and diverse as I’ve enjoyed and, like most people, I’m worried for the future of our planet,” Rafael Jaramillo says. “Different people can and should bring different disciplinary backgrounds and skillsets to bear on problems of shared importance — it takes a village to solve the hardest ones.”

A delicate dance

MIT Energy Initiative

Professor Catherine Wolfram, an economist in the MIT Sloan School of Management, looks for ways to decarbonize global energy systems while recognizing that energy drives economic development, especially in the developing world.

Lessons from Fukushima: Prepare for the unlikely

A new study maps how the Fukushima Dai’ichi nuclear accident unfolded, and points to the importance of mitigation measures and last lines of defense. Here, International Atomic Energy Agency experts visit Fukushima Dai’ichi Nuclear Power Plant Unit 4 in 2013.

MIT Energy Initiative

Postdoc Weiyue Zhou (left) and Associate Professor Michael Short attach a novel test chamber containing a metal sample and salt to the end of a proton accelerator. Experiments to date show that proton irradiation decreases the rate of corrosion in certain metal alloys — potentially good news for designers of promising nuclear power reactors that rely on molten salts, which tend to be highly corrosive.

Optimizing nuclear fuels for next-generation reactors

MIT Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering

“I told myself I was going to find myself in a career that allows me to develop energy technologies that can easily be scaled to meet the energy needs of the world, including my own country,” says Assistant Professor Ericmoore Jossou.
