Energy science

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

These inexpensive photosensitizers could make solar power and chemical manufacturing more efficient. Experiments at SLAC offer insight into how they work.

Replacing today’s expensive catalysts could bring down the cost of producing the gas for fuel, fertilizer and clean energy storage.

SLAC/Stanford scientists and their colleagues find a new way to efficiently convert CO2 into the building block for sustainable liquid fuels.

SIMES researcher Danfeng Li explains the delicate ‘Jenga chemistry’ behind making a new nickel oxide material, the first in a potential new family of unconventional superconductors.

Made with ‘Jenga chemistry,’ the discovery could help crack the mystery of how high-temperature superconductors work.

The coating significantly extends the battery's life and reduces the problems that cause batteries to burst into flames.

The SLAC scientists will each receive $2.5 million for their research on fusion energy and advanced radiofrequency technology.

This early-career scientist has undertaken challenging projects with significant implications for lithium-ion batteries.

Combined with the lab’s LCLS X-ray laser, it’ll provide unprecedented atomic views of some of nature’s speediest processes.

What they learned could help manufacturers design more reliable and longer-lasting batteries for smartphones and cars.
