FACET-II provides high-energy electron beams for researching revolutionary
particle accelerator technologies that could make future accelerators 100 to
1,000 times smaller and a lot more capable.

The Stanford-SLAC Cryo-EM center gives scientists unprecedented views of the
inner workings of the cell and of technologies like batteries and solar cells.

SLAC’s Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource (SSRL) provides extremely
bright X-rays that scientists use in a wide range of research to probe matter on
the scale of atoms and molecules.

The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS), the world’s first hard X-ray
free-electron laser, allows researchers to make stop-action movies of chemistry
in action and explore proteins for new pharmaceuticals.
