Supported by SLAC’s catalysis group, researchers have discovered a promising method to remove contaminants during the making of polymers.

An associate scientist at SSRL, Richardson studies plant growth to find ways to enhance nutrient uptake in plants, especially in challenging conditions – such as higher temperatures, drought, and intense precipitation events – brought about by climate change.

A materials chemist and SLAC associate scientist, Preefer is excited about the synergies being sparked at the SLAC-Stanford Battery Center. 

The method could lead to the development of new materials with tailored properties, with potential applications in fields such as climate change, quantum computing and drug design.

The SLAC/Stanford researcher is a leading materials scientist and entrepreneur whose research is paving the way for better batteries, cleaner power grids.

SLAC is taking part in a multi-institutional effort to help reach net-zero carbon emissions goals in difficult-to-electrify industries.

Following the NIF ignition demonstrations, the prospect of developing a fusion energy source using lasers looks brighter than ever. 

SLAC and its partners have released a free, easy-to-use platform for understanding and managing electric grids. 

SLAC will partner in two collaborations that aim to speed up progress in fusion energy science and technology.

The team reduced the amount of expensive platinum group metals needed to make an effective cell and found a new way to test future fuel cell innovations.

The future of experimental particle physics is exciting –  and energy intensive. SLAC physicists are thinking about how to make one proposal, the Cool Copper Collider, more sustainable.

LaserNetUS funding will allow scientists to explore fundamental plasma science and inertial fusion energy research and technology.
