The SLAC-Stanford team pulled hydrogen directly from ocean waters. Their work could help efforts to generate low-carbon fuel for electric grids, cars, boats and other infrastructure.

New SLAC-Stanford Battery Center bridges the gaps between discovering, manufacturing and deploying innovative energy storage solutions. 

After decades of effort, scientists have finally seen the process by which nature creates the oxygen we breathe using SLAC’s X-ray laser.

Chemical reactions often involve intermediate steps that are too fast and complex for us to see  – even using our most advanced scientific instruments. Combining two X-ray spectroscopy techniques has now been shown to change that.

Invited speakers from national labs, academia, and industry, will describe their thoughts on the future of nano/microelectronics.

The results offer important implications for astrophysics and nuclear fusion research.

The results should further our understanding of similar reactions with vital roles in chemistry, such as the production of vitamin D in our bodies.

Batteries come in many shapes and sizes, but their materials can be hard to source. SLAC researchers are trying to build them with more abundant and ethical elements.

It irons out wrinkles in thin films of these novel superconductors so scientists can see their true nature for the first time. 

The discovery will help art conservators develop new preservation techniques.

The facility is now one step away from releasing an unprecedented stream of ultra-bright X-rays.
