Secretary Abraham on DOE and American Leadership
in Science Brookhaven National Laboratory,14
June 2002 The Department of Energy could well
have been called the Department of Science and
Energy given our contribution to American
science. And the reason we are so deeply
involved in science is simple. Our mission here
at DOE is national security. And in my
view, a serious commitment to national security
demands a serious commitment to science,
including basic research. This commitment
strengthens our energy security, international
competitiveness, economic growth, and
intellectual leadership. Moreover, if we ever
hope to leapfrog today's energy challenges we
must look to basic research. I think it's
clear. A nation that embraces basic research
embraces a brighter future.

Grain boundary films as thin as 1 nm affect
mechanical properties of ceramics. Improved
ceramics have high strength, doubled fracture
resistance, and are resistant to high-temperature

9Metallic Glasses
Some of the first bulk metallic glass material
New alloys that form metallic glasses do not have
crystalline structure, but rather the atoms are
randomly positioned like in a liquid. This
structure leads to improved toughness and large
plastic strain to failure because of the lack of
grain boundaries which in crystalline materials
are points of weakness.

Cu-poor regions
10Nuclear-Friendly Materials
Changing the constituent A and B elements in
A2B2O7 compounds profoundly affects radiation
performance. Dramatic improvements in radiation
tolerance were found as the metallic elements A
and B become more similar in size.
11Rechargeable Thin-Film Lithium Batteries
- Revolutionary solid electrolyte (lithium
phosphorus oxynitride) is used in rechargeable
batteries that are 1/2 the thickness of plastic
wrap. - These batteries are used in medical and consumer
devices, smart credit cards, miniature hazardous
materials monitors, and memory backup power
reservoirs.
12Photosynthetic Reaction Center
The fundamental process by which plants and
bacteria convert and store solar energy as
chemical free energy occurs in the photosynthetic
reaction center. This process is studied as the
prototype for simpler systems.
13From Photosynthesis to Metabolic Products

17Complex systems Understanding collective,
cooperative, and adaptive phenomena and emergent
behavior
High-temperature superconductivity
- Interactions among individual components can lead
to coherent behavior that can be described only
at higher levels than those of the individual
units. This can produce remarkably complex and
yet organized behavior. - Electrons interacting with each other and the
host lattice in solids give rise to magnetism and
superconductivity. - Chemical constituents interacting in solution
give rise to complex pattern formation and
growth. - Living systems self assemble their own
components, self repair them as necessary, and
reproduce they sense and respond to even subtle
changes in their environments. -

19Seeing Atoms Overview of BES Facilities
20Seeing Atoms The BES Scientific User
Facilities The use of x-rays, neutrons, and
electrons for materials research
- Our understanding of properties of materials is
based on knowledge of the structure and dynamical
properties of the constituent atoms of the
materials. - Atoms are too small to be imaged directly, so we
employ diffraction and scattering techniques to
indirectly image the atoms. Because atoms are
spaced 0.2 nm apart, we employ radiation of a
similar wavelength. The most widely used probes
are beams of x-rays, neutrons, and electrons.
- X-ray and electron beams are very intense and
readily available. Neutrons beams are much
weaker however, neutrons have very important
properties that make them the ideal probe in many
situations. - The choice of which probe to use depends on the
system under study and the information required.
- Today, the BES facilities for x-ray, neutron, and
electron-beam scattering serve thousands of
scientists annually who perform research in
materials sciences, physics, chemistry,
geosciences, biosciences, and more. These
facilities represent the largest such collection
operated by a single organization in the world.
21The Scattering of X-rays, Neutrons, Electrons
by Materials
Scattering Interactions
X-rays and electrons interact with the electrons
in the material. With x-rays the interaction is
electromagnetic with electrons, it is
electrostatic. Both interactions are strong,
and, therefore, neither probe penetrates the
material very deeply. Neutrons interact with the
atomic nuclei in the material via the very
short-range, strong nuclear force. Neutrons
penetrate the material much more deeply than
either x-rays or electrons. If there are
unpaired electrons in the material, neutrons may
also interact by a second mechanism a
dipole-dipole interaction between the magnetic
moment of the neutron and the magnetic moment of
the unpaired electron.
Schematic of a solid showing atomic nuclei (large
central dots) and electrons (small dots
encircling the nuclei). Beams of neutrons (red),
x-rays (blue), and electrons (green) are seen to
interact with the solid by different mechanisms.
22The Penetration Depths of X-rays, Neutrons,
Electrons in Materials
Neutrons penetrate deeply into materials, even
metals such as lead that are virtually
impenetrable by x-rays and electrons. These
pictures show neutron radiographs of a bird of
paradise flower behind an aluminum sheet and a
rose inside a lead container.

26Reviews of BES Facilities
Facilities are reviewed using (1) external,
independent review committees operating according
to the procedures established for peer review of
BES laboratory programs and facilities
(http//www.science.doe.gov/bes/labreview.html)
or (2) specially empanelled subcommittees of
BESAC. BESAC subcommittees have reviewed the
synchrotron radiation light sources, the neutron
scattering facilities, and the electron-beam
microcharacterization facilities. The reports of
these reviews are available on the BES website
(http//www.science.doe.gov/bes/BESAC/reports.html
). Regardless of whether a review is by an
independent committee charged by BES or by a
BESAC subcommittee, the review has standard
elements. Important aspects of the reviews
include assessments of the quality of research
performed at the facility the reliability and
availability of the facility user access
policies and procedures user satisfaction
facility staffing levels RD activities to
advance the facility management of the facility
and long-range goals of the facility. These
reviews have identified best practices and
substantive issues. For example, the reviews
highlighted the change that occurred as the light
sources transitioned from a mode in which they
served primarily expert users to one in which
they served very large numbers of inexperienced
users in a wide variety of disciplines.
Facilities that are in design or construction
are reviewed according to procedures set down in
DOE Order 413.3 Program and Project Management
for Capital Assets and in the Office of Science
Independent Review Handbook (http//www.science.do
e.gov/SC-80/sc-81/docs.htmlDOE). These Office
of Science construction project reviews, enlist
experts in the technical scope of the facility
under construction and its costing, scheduling,
and construction management.
27Synchrotron Radiation Light Sources
28Synchrotron Radiation Production
6. KLYSTRONS generate high power radiowaves to
sustain electron acceleration, replenishing
energy lost by the electron when synchrotron
radiation is emitted.
5. BEAMLINES all around the STORAGE RING
transport the x-ray radiation into experimental
HUTCHES where instrumentation is available for
experiments.
1. A GUN produces electrons, which are
accelerated in a LINAC.
3. Electrons travel in a (mostly) circular orbit
in the STORAGE RING synchrotron radiation is
produced at the places where the electrons are
bent by BENDING MAGNETS or INSERTION DEVICES.
2. A BOOSTER RING further accelerates the
electrons which are then fed into the TRANSPORT
LINE on their way to the STORAGE RING.
4. Special INSERTION DEVICES, which are placed
in straight sections of the STORAGE RING, are
used to generate very intense beams of x-rays.

31The Evolution of Machines for Synchrotron
Radiation
First Generation Storage rings originally
designed and used for high energy physics
research Many of these machines were initially
used parasitically as synchrotron radiation
sources during high-energy physics runs. In some
cases synchrotron radiation research became
partly dedicated and eventually the machines
became fully dedicated as a radiation sources as
the high-energy physics programs were terminated.
As fully dedicated sources modifications could be
made that brought the performance up to second
generation level. Second Generation Storage
rings designed from the start as fully dedicated
radiation sources The first round of these
machines was designed in the late 1970s before
there was any experience with wiggler and
undulator insertion devices as sources, so they
were primarily designed to exploit the bending
magnets, with a few straight sections for
possible future implementation with wigglers and
undulators. Third Generation Storage rings
optimized for insertion devices These machines
were specifically designed for undulators, which
require low emittance electron beams, and are
generally characterized by low emittance beams
and by a design that includes many straight
sections for insertion devices. Fourth
Generation Sources (likely linac-based) of
extremely bright/short pulse radiation Advances
in the creation, compression, transport and
monitoring of bright electron beams make it
possible to base the next (fourth) generation
light sources on linear accelerators rather than
on storage rings. These sources would produce
coherent radiation orders of perhaps 10 orders of
magnitude greater peak power and peak brightness
than the present third-generation sources. The
main directions are Free-Electron Lasers (FELs)
and Energy Recovery Linacs (ERLs). There is a
blurring among these categories since a first
generation ring can also have many straight
sections for insertion devices. Also, there has
been a gradual lowering of the emittance of
several first and second-generation rings so that
they are closer in performance to that of the
third-generation rings.

36X-ray Sources Summary
- 2nd and 3rd generation Synchrotron Radiation (SR)
light sources are todays workhorses. About 150
beamlines are operational with the capability of
adding about 50 more at the new sources (ALS,
APS). The number of users could reach 10,000. - The long pulse length hundreds of picoseconds
of 2nd and 3rd generation sources limits their
usefulness for the study of fast processes.
Sources that are much more intense and have
shorter pulse lengths hold the promise for
remarkable new discoveries. - Energy Recovery Linacs (ERLs) are more intense
than SR light sources, have high repetition
rates, and can serve many beam lines. ERLs can
be optimized for short pulses or high brightness
- but it is very challenging to do both. - X-ray Free Electron Lasers (XFELs) can achieve
extreme peak brightness and ultrashort pulse
lengths.
(ALS, APS, upgraded SSRL)
NSLS
36
37User Access Modes (FOOBs, CATs, PRTs)
- From the earliest days of synchrotron user
facilities, means were developed to encourage and
enable partnerships between the facilities and
users from academia, industry, and federal
laboratories. - Two models of construction and operation of beam
lines emerged - Facility Owned and Operated Beamlines (FOOBs) are
built and operated by the facility. A majority
of the time (80-90) is allocated to the general
users on the basis of peer review. - Participating Research Team (PRT) or
Collaborative Access Team (CAT) beamlines are
built and operated by consortia of users. A
substantial fraction of time (60-75) is
dedicated to the consortia, with the balance for
the general users. - Each model has pros and cons.
- The four DOE facilities range from operations
with significant number of PRTs (NSLS) or CATs
(APS) to primarily FOOBs (SSRL). Facilities with
large numbers of PRTs and CATs are gradually
transitioning to increased access for GUs via
FOOBs.
38Beam Lines - Construction and Operation Costs
- Cost of beam line construction depends on type of
beam line and instrumentation - bending magnet beam lines on the order 3-4M
- wiggler or undulator beam lines (including ID) on
the order of 6-10M - specialized undulator lines on the order of
10-12M - Operations costs vary greatly depending on focus
and goals - typical high throughput structural biology beam
lines needs about 5-6 FTEs to operate effectively
full time - beam lines with lower user turnover can be
operated with fewer staff (2-3 persons) if there
is shared support for areas like electronics and
software
39The BES Synchrotron Radiation Light SourcesFrom
the Province of Specialists in the 1980s to a
Widely Used Tool in the 21st Century
The number of researchers using the synchrotron
radiation light sources is expected to reach
gt10,000 annually when beamlines are fully
instrumented.
Who funds the light sources? The Basic Energy
Sciences program provides the complete support
for the operations of these facilities.
Furthermore, BES continues as the dominant
supporter of research in the physical sciences,
providing as much as 85 of all federal funds for
beamlines, instruments, and PI support. Many
other agencies, industries, and private sponsors
provide support for instrumentation and research
in specialized areas such as protein
crystallography.

- One of the APS goals has been to run the storage
ring in the constant current or top-up mode.
Top-up mode consists of injecting a small amount
of charge into the storage ring at regular
intervals in order to maintain a constant
current. The major benefit of top-up operation is
the virtual elimination of the beam lifetime (the
decay of beam current over time). It is the
first facility in the world to successfully
implement top-up mode.

69Spallation Neutron Source User Access Policy
- All research will be peer reviewed.
- Time available to General Users (GU) will be
maximized. - Users participate in instrument specification,
design, and fabrication through - Instrument Advisory Teams (IATs) that work with
SNS to provide input into the design and
scientific program of each SNS project funded
instrument. - Instrument Development Teams (IDTs) that work
with SNS to obtain instruments that are funded
outside of the SNS construction project. IDTs
advise SNS on the conceptual design and
construction of an instrument and are responsible
for ensuring that the scientific requirements of
the GU community are met. - Both IAT and IDT instruments will have the
majority of their beam-time (gt80) allocated for
the General User community through peer review of
scientific proposals. - DOE/BES will provide funds to operate the neutron
source, most of the instruments regardless of how
they are capitalized, and user support
facilities.

71Electron Beam Scattering Sources
72Electron Scattering Facilities
- The four BES Centers have demonstrated the
highest resolution direct probes of matter - images at better than 100 pm (1 Å) spatial
resolution - atomic displacements measured to 1 pm accuracy
- Exceptional scientific contributions via in-house
research as well as extensive collaboration with
and support of over 750 users per year. - The Centers are test beds for new types of
electron optical and spectroscopic
instrumentation, new in-situ methods and
techniques, and development of new methods.
73The Transmission Electron Achromatic Microscope
(TEAM)
GOAL Design and develop a new generation of
intermediate-voltage (200-300 kV) electron
microscopes in which the two major lens
deficiencies that limit performance spherical
and chromatic aberration are compensated.
- When optimized for resolution, the correction of
aberrations should allow recovery of direct
spatial resolution in the range of 50 pm. - Alternatively, improvements in the electron
optics would ease tight constraints on sample
space surrounding the specimen due to the lenses.
The resulting larger chamber could accommodate
improved spectrometers or in-situ modules for
dynamic imaging of reactions, deposition,
deformation, and response to electric and
magnetic fields. - Custom aberration-corrected instruments are
planned based on a common, standardized core
platform. Individual instruments will be
configured to meet distinct scientific goals
atomic resolution tomography, single column
microanalysis, or in-situ manipulation.
