The SIMES investigator was cited for his singular contributions to quantum materials science.

If scaled up successfully, the team's new system could help answer questions about certain kinds of superconductors and other unusual states of matter.

Researchers discover that electrons play a surprising role in heat transfer between layers of semiconductors, with implications for next-generation electronic devices.  

Under his leadership, the lab diversified its research portfolio, expanded its science impact, advanced major projects, increased collaboration with Stanford and met the challenges of a global pandemic.

Researchers used cryo-EM (left) to discover how a chamber in human cells (right) directs protein folding. 

A polymer-based electrolyte makes for batteries that keep working – and don’t catch fire – when heated to over 140 degrees F. 

Once built, the system could produce fast X-ray pulses ten times more powerful than ever before.

To invent a new tool for studying how chemicals react at interfaces, researchers shoot tiny jets of oil and water at each other and illuminate them.

LSST Camera images provide the inspiration for artist Lennart Lahuis’s “Astromelancholia.”

A machine learning algorithm automatically extracts information to speed up – and extend – the study of materials with X-ray pulse pairs.
