A new era for batteries: Argonne leads $50M sodium-ion innovation push

Supported by SLAC’s catalysis group, researchers have discovered a promising method to remove contaminants during the making of polymers.

SSRL scientists have figured out how platinum electrodes dissolve, potentially paving the way for renewable energy improvements.

As a member of a collaborative team led by General Atomics, SLAC will help bridge basic research programs with the growing fusion industry. 

The research lays the groundwork for deeper exploration of high-temperature superconducting materials, with real-world applications such as lossless power grids and advanced quantum technologies.

A market and supply chain analysis for sodium- and lithium-ion batteries is the first by STEER, a new Stanford-SLAC energy technology analysis program.

LCLS X-rays allowed researchers to connect the molecular dynamics of supercritical carbon dioxide, used in industrial and environmental applications, with its unique properties.
