These fleeting disruptions, seen for the first time in lead hybrid perovskites, may help explain why these materials are exceptionally good at turning sunlight into electrical current in solar cells.

The results of a new scientific study reveal how photosynthetic reaction centers adapt to make light-driven reactions more efficient.

Adding polymers and fireproofing to a battery’s current collectors makes it lighter, safer and about 20% more efficient.

The results show how a particle’s surface and interior influence each other, an important thing to know when developing more robust batteries.

The prestigious awards provide at least $2.5 million over five years in support of their work in understanding photochemical reactions and improving accelerator beams.

A new lithium-based electrolyte invented by Stanford University scientists could pave the way for the next generation of battery-powered electric vehicles.

Understanding nature’s process could inform the next generation of artificial photosynthetic systems that produce clean and renewable energy from sunlight and water.

The SLAC/Stanford scientists are among 120 new members of an organization that advises the nation on science and technology issues.
