  • The Blue Miracle by Kai Kupferschmidt
    The Blue Miracle By Kai Kupferschmidt Picture 1: Semi-precious stone lapis lazuli - one of the most important sources to make ultramarine pigments – its weight was judged by the value of gold. (Picture: Mauritius Images) The favorite color of most people, however hardly common among animals and plants. It is very difficult to produce artificially. Consequently, scientists are eagerly working on creating new blue pigments. Part 1: Can we really be sure where the color blue has its origin? Throughout history, it was a tedious and laborious process – or a stroke of luck. Pure Coincidence His most famous discovery came like out of a blue sky. Mas Subramanian, a solid-state chemist at the chemical company Dupont, published hundreds of papers and dozens of patents. He had already discovered a new superconductor and a more environ- mentally friendly way to produce the che- mical fluorobenzene. After joining Ore- gon State University in 2006, he worked on so-called multiferroics, a material with special electric and magnetic properties, which could lead to faster computers. Ba- sed on his idea, the PhD student, Andrew Smith, mixed indium oxide, manganese oxide and yttrium oxide and heated the mixture in an oven. The desired effect did not show, but its color was very blue. “There is something about blue that just fascinates people” First Subramanian thought that Smith Says Mas Subramanian, discoverer of YInMn blue. made a mistake. Then he remembered that someone at Dupont had once told him how difficult it was to make the co- The arthistorian Simon Schama, described lor blue.

It shimmers like an art display in its own right, facing in towards Foreword the glass central courtyard in Renzo Piano’s wonderful 2014 extension to the Harvard Art Museums. The collection seems, somehow, suspended within the sky. From the public galleries it is tantalising, almost intoxicating, to see the glass-fronted cases full of their bright bottles up there in the administra- tive area of the museum. The shelves are arranged mostly by hue; the blues are graded in ombre effect from deepest midnight to the fading in- digo of favourite jeans, with startling, pleasing juxtapositions of turquoise (flasks of lightest green malachite; summer sky-coloured copper carbon- ate and swimming pool verdigris) next to navy, next to something that was once blue and is now simply, chalk. A few feet along, the bright alizarin crimsons slake to brownish brazil wood upon one side, and blush to madder pink the other. This curious chromatic ordering makes the whole collection look like an installation exploring the very nature of painting.

  • College of Science Annual Report 2017–2019 (Pdf)
    College of Science 2017–2019 Stepping up to the world’s greatest challenges. College of Science highlights for the fiscal years beginning July 1, 2017 and ending June 30, 2019. Oregon State is a profoundly public-spirited university characterized by world-class researchers and collaborative community-builders intent on serving people across the state, the nation and the world. This powerful drive reflects our institution’s status not only as a Land-Grant university, but also a Space-Grant, Sun-Grant and Sea-Grant university. These designations signal Oregon State’s ability to receive federal funding for research projects that benefit the larger community. Science plays a key role in that quest. The College of Science is deeply engaged in solving many of the most pressing challenges we face as a society. Together we ignite a passion for science in all learners and move discoveries from the lab to people’s lives. The university’s broad research, scholarship, teaching, service and discovery enterprise encompasses all areas of science. From ploughs to touch screens Science has played a founding role in carrying out Oregon State’s Land Grant mission from its origins in the Morrill Act of 1862. The College’s pioneering programs and research in biohealth, the life sciences, marine and environmental sciences, and statistics help us adapt to changing social and economic needs. Through evidence-based programs, science provides both a body of evidence and a mode of inquiry that leads to world-changing discoveries. Local, state and global industries have profited from sustainable materials that began as lab experiments in Gilbert Hall, from more efficient batteries and greener touch screens, to a new heat-resistant paint using a historic new blue pigment discovered here.
