It irons out wrinkles in thin films of these novel superconductors so scientists can see their true nature for the first time. 

The results offer important implications for astrophysics and nuclear fusion research.

A low-cost, recyclable powder can kill thousands of waterborne bacteria per second when exposed to sunlight. Stanford and SLAC scientists say the ultrafast disinfectant could be a revolutionary advance for 2 billion people worldwide without access to safe drinking water.

New SLAC-Stanford Battery Center bridges the gaps between discovering, manufacturing and deploying innovative energy storage solutions. 

A machine learning algorithm automatically extracts information to speed up – and extend – the study of materials with X-ray pulse pairs.

The award celebrates Huang’s achievements studying atom-scale physics with fast X-ray pulses.

Encapsulating precious-metal catalysts in a web-like alumina framework could reduce the amount needed in catalytic converters – and our dependency on these scarce metals.
