An example for technology transfer at SLAC: Expertise in creating powerful particle beams for giant particle accelerators that advance our fundamental understanding of matter (left) stimulates the development of new approaches in cancer radiation therapy (right).
An illustration of 1D copper oxide, or cuprate, chains that have been “doped” to free up some of their electrons in a study led by researchers at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford and Clemson universities. Copper atoms are black...
Stanford Research Computing Facility (SRCF) on SLAC's campus. The facility supports scientific endeavors that require the handling of unprecedented data streams.
An illustration shows polarons – fleeting distortions in a material’s atomic lattice ––in a promising next-generation energy material, lead hybrid perovskite. Scientists at SLAC and Stanford observed for the first time how these “bubbles” of distortion form around charge carriers...
