Technology innovation

SLAC’s Matt Garrett and Susan Simpkins talk about tech transfer that brings innovations from the national lab to the people, including advances for medical devices and self-driving vehicles.

The ePix series of detectors is designed to keep pace with ever more demanding experiments at SLAC and elsewhere.

It uses terahertz radiation to power a miniscule copper accelerator structure.

Q-NEXT will tackle next-generation quantum science challenges through a public-private partnership, ensuring U.S. leadership in an economically crucial arena.

The ePix10k detector is ready to advance science at SLAC’s Linac Coherent Light Source X-ray laser and at facilities around the world.

The technology could save the lives of COVID-19 patients when more advanced ventilators are too expensive or not available.

Researchers have squeezed a high-energy electron beam into tight bundles using terahertz radiation, a promising advance in watching the ultrafast world of atoms unfold.

SLAC scientists and collaborators are developing 3D copper printing techniques to build accelerator components.

After meeting at a party, a Stanford psychologist and SLAC particle physicists have collaborated on a new kind of EEG device that can stimulate the brain and read out the effects.

An “out there” theory inspired the development of the Dark Matter Radio, a device that could explain the mysterious matter that makes up 85 percent of the mass of our universe.

Two projects will look for ways to link individual quantum devices into networks for quantum computing and ultrasensitive detectors.

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