A groundbreaking study shows defects spreading through diamond faster than the speed of sound 

With up to a million X-ray flashes per second, 8,000 times more than its predecessor, it transforms the ability of scientists to explore atomic-scale, ultrafast phenomena that are key to a broad range of applications, from quantum materials to clean...

Researchers demonstrate a way to remove the potent greenhouse gas from the exhaust of engines that burn natural gas.  

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

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.

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

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

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

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.
