The latest advance from a research collaboration with industry could dramatically accelerate the development of sturdier batteries for fast-charging electric vehicles. 

A promising lead halide perovskite is great at converting sunlight to electricity, but it breaks down at room temperature. Now scientists have discovered how to stabilize it with pressure from a diamond anvil cell.

A pioneer in clean energy technology at Stanford and SLAC, he is one of eight scientists and engineers honored by the U.S. Department of Energy.

The surprising results offer a way to boost the activity and stability of catalysts for making hydrogen fuel from water.

These fleeting disruptions, seen for the first time in lead hybrid perovskites, may help explain why these materials are exceptionally good at turning sunlight into electrical current in solar cells.

The results of a new scientific study reveal how photosynthetic reaction centers adapt to make light-driven reactions more efficient.

Adding polymers and fireproofing to a battery’s current collectors makes it lighter, safer and about 20% more efficient.

The results show how a particle’s surface and interior influence each other, an important thing to know when developing more robust batteries.

The prestigious awards provide at least $2.5 million over five years in support of their work in understanding photochemical reactions and improving accelerator beams.
