Anchoring individual iridium atoms on the surface of a catalytic particle boosted its performance in carrying out a reaction that’s been a bottleneck for sustainable energy production.

Presented by Justin Myles. As the universe expanded from the Big Bang, regions where the density of matter was higher than average grew into galaxies and clusters of galaxies.

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

The chemically controlled chains reveal an ultrastrong attraction between electrons that may help cuprate superconductors carry electrical current with no loss at relatively high temperatures.

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

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.

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

This is the first direct observation of a hydroxyl-hydronium complex – important for a wide range of chemical and biological processes from the tails of comets to cancer treatment.

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

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.

The early career award honors Sood for his research and leadership using the LCLS user facility at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.
