Researchers have invented a way to slide atomically-thin layers of 2D materials over one another to store more data, in less space and using less energy.

A new lithium-based electrolyte invented by Stanford University scientists could pave the way for the next generation of battery-powered electric vehicles.

It could offer insights into the evolution of planetary systems and guide scientists hoping to harness nuclear fusion as a new source of energy.

Learning how liquid silicates behave at these extreme temperatures and pressures has been a longstanding challenge in the geosciences.

The advance opens a path toward a new generation of logic and memory devices that could be 10,000 times faster than today's.

New machine learning methods bring insights into how lithium ion batteries degrade, and show it’s more complicated than many thought.

The SLAC/Stanford scientists are among 120 new members of an organization that advises the nation on science and technology issues.

Turning a brittle oxide into a flexible membrane and stretching it on a tiny apparatus flipped it from a conducting to an insulating state and changed its magnetic properties. The technique can be used to study and design a broad...

With the right amount of pressure and surprisingly little heat, a substance found in fossil fuels can transform into pure diamond.

A better understanding of these materials and how they store and transport oil and gas could one day enable more efficient fossil fuel production.

It reveals an abrupt transition in cuprates where particles give up their individuality. The results flip a popular theory on its head.

Called XLEAP, the new method will provide sharp views of electrons in chemical processes that take place in billionths of a billionth of a second and drive crucial aspects of life.
