X-ray light sources and electron imaging

Early career award recognizes Mitrano’s work in ultrafast X-ray scattering.

Using SLAC’s X-ray synchrotron SSRL, Wang improves fundamental knowledge about how cells communicate, which could enable the development of more effective drugs.

The studies could lead to a new understanding of how high-temperature superconductors operate.

The next revolutionary X-ray laser in a class of its own, LCLS-II, is under construction at SLAC, with support from four other DOE national laboratories.

A new way to arrange the hard-working atoms in this part of an exhaust system could lower the cost of curbing pollution from automotive engines.

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.

The technique can be used to study molecular phenomena and the forming and breaking of chemical bonds.

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

A new twist on cryo-EM imaging reveals what’s going on inside MOFs, highly porous nanoparticles with big potential for storing fuel, separating gases and removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

Physicist Tor Raubenheimer explores the world by climbing rocks and designing particle accelerators.

Experiments at SLAC’s X-ray laser reveal in atomic detail how two distinct liquid phases in these materials enable fast switching between glassy and crystalline states that represent 0s and 1s in memory devices.
