Ames National Laboratory

R&D 100 Winner: 🇺🇸 A rare-earth-free magnet that gets stronger at high temps?

The MnBi magnet is a U.S.-developed breakthrough that resists demagnetization up to 200°C—perfect for EV motors & industrial use.

We’re excited to welcome @ENERGY’s @SecretaryWright to Ames National Laboratory! His visit highlights how important science is to driving innovation, energy security, and U.S. tech leadership. He’ll tour our facilities, meet our team, and see our impact in action!

Honored to host @ENERGY’s @SecretaryWright at Ames National Lab! We're pushing magnet innovation with domestic materials to power tech & energy. Proud to lead the @CMI_hub!

A Science Undergraduate Laboratory Internship (SULI) at Ames Lab means:
- Peer networking
- Experience at a Department of Energy lab
- and a paid internship! If you're an undergrad, apply in January for a work environment in one of the top materials labs in the world.

The Department of Energy’s National Laboratory System drives American innovation for abundant energy, competitive impact, and national security. Follow the stories of the #DoeNationalLabs
