A new study is a step forward in understanding why perovskite materials work so well in energy devices and potentially leads the way toward a theorized “hot” technology that would significantly improve the efficiency of today’s solar cells.

Revealed for the first time by a new X-ray laser technique, their surprisingly unruly response has profound implications for designing and controlling materials.

Two studies led by SLAC and Stanford capture electron 'sound waves' and identify a positive feedback loop that may boost superconducting temperatures.

The initiative will give scientists more access to powerful lasers at universities and labs.

These projects, selected during the process to plan the future of US particle physics, are all set to come online within the next 10 years.

An advisory committee is evaluating proposals for first experiments at SLAC’s future FACET-II accelerator facility.

Switches like this one, discovered with SLAC’s ultrafast ‘electron camera’, could offer a new, simple path to storing data in next-generation devices.

Our best model of particle physics explains only about 5 percent of the universe.

Using a 5,000-mile network loop operated by ESnet, researchers at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (SLAC) recently transferred 1 petabyte in 29 hours, with encryption and checksumming, beating last year's record by 5 hours, an almost 15...

To keep up with an impending astronomical increase in data about our universe, astrophysicists turn to machine learning.
