A better understanding of this process could inform the next generation of artificial photosynthetic systems that produce clean and renewable energy.

New observations of the atomic structure of iron reveal it undergoes "twinning" under extreme stress and pressure.

In two new papers, researchers used X-ray crystallography and cryogenic electron microscopy to reveal new details of the structure and function of molecular assembly lines that produce common antibiotics.

Spawned by the spins of electrons in magnetic materials, these tiny whirlpools behave like independent particles and could be the future of computing. Experiments with SLAC’s X-ray laser are revealing their secrets.

Scientists who perform experiments at SLAC’s lightsources gathered online for research talks, workshops and discussions.

High-power lasers will work in concert with the lab’s X-ray laser to dramatically improve our understanding of matter in extreme conditions.

The award recognizes her research and service at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource.

Much like crystallizing rock candy from sugar syrup, the new method grows 2D perovskites precisely layered with other 2D materials to produce crystals with a wide range of electronic properties.

Their work helps reveal the inner workings of cells and the behavior of matter under extreme pressures and temperatures.

The award recognizes Aitbekova's work on catalysts, including a new catalyst that may revolutionize car emission controls.

Researchers at the University of Leeds deepened their understanding of a synthetic detergent without ever setting foot in the lab where their experiments took place.

Three physicists talk about how they got started, their work at SLAC and what they would say to others considering a career in STEM.
