A SLAC study shows a process called atomic relaxation offers a new way to explore quantum states in these puzzling materials.

AI is playing a key role in helping SLAC researchers find new galaxies and tiny neutrinos, and discover new drugs.

Descamps was recognized for turning the world’s most powerful X-ray laser into a sophisticated tool for probing extremely hot, dense matter.

Tanner works on self-assembling nanocrystals, which could be the basis for less expensive, easier to build displays and solar cells.

Charging lithium-ion batteries at high currents just before they leave the factory is 30 times faster and increases battery lifespans by 50%, according to a study at the SLAC-Stanford Battery Center. 

An X-ray imaging technique revealed that copper nanofoams used in inertial fusion experiments aren't as uniform as expected.

Scientists demonstrated a materials characterization technique can be successful at a new type of facility, and they used it at LCLS to discover a hidden materials phase.

Christopher J. Tassone, PhD provides an overview of the research that SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory performed as part of the Bio-Optimized Technologies to keep Thermoplastics out of Landfills and the Environment (BOTTLETM) consortium.

The method could lead to the development of new materials with tailored properties, with potential applications in fields such as climate change, quantum computing and drug design.

A study reveals an ultrathin material’s ability to circularly polarize light, potentially informing how they work in optoelectronic devices.
