Discovered at SLAC and Stanford, this new class of unconventional superconductors is starting to give up its secrets – including a surprising 3D metallic state.

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

Computer simulations yield a much more accurate picture of these states of matter.

The Hubbard model, used to understand electron behavior in numerous quantum materials, now shows us its stripes, and superconductivity too, in simulations for cuprate superconductors.

Early career award recognizes Mitrano’s work in ultrafast X-ray scattering.

Two projects will look for ways to link individual quantum devices into networks for quantum computing and ultrasensitive detectors.

SIMES researcher Danfeng Li explains the delicate ‘Jenga chemistry’ behind making a new nickel oxide material, the first in a potential new family of unconventional superconductors.

Made with ‘Jenga chemistry,’ the discovery could help crack the mystery of how high-temperature superconductors work.

The studies could lead to a new understanding of how high-temperature superconductors operate.

In the decade since LCLS produced its first light, it has pushed boundaries in countless areas of discovery.

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.
