Stanford Report
Alberto Salleo and Scott Keene created artificial synapses to replicate the brain’s efficiency and learning capacity in computing systems. Now a new biohybrid edition of these artificial synapses can communicate with living cells
The artificial synapses performed even better than expected in processing speed, energy efficiency, reproducibility, and durability.
Professor David Goldhaber-Gordon found a way to investigate quantum critical phenomena much more efficiently
The essential idea of a quantum simulator, Goldhaber-Gordon said, is sort of similar to a mechanical model of the solar system, where someone turns a crank, and interlocking gears rotate to represent the motion of the moon and planets.

Mobile metallic domain walls in an all-in-all-out magnetic insulator
Magnetic domain walls are boundaries between regions with different configurations of the same magnetic order. In a magnetic insulator, where the magnetic order is tied to its bulk insulating property, it has been postulated that electrical properties are drastically different along the domain walls, where the order is inevitably disturbed.

The Materials Science and Engineering Department promotes an inclusive learning environment
It is our collective duty to educate ourselves about the historical and current inequities that cause some groups to be underrepresented and undervalued in the scientific community. We are actively working to break down socioeconomic barriers to reach talented individuals and help disadvantaged students succeed.

A climate that values the contributions of and encourages participation from all groups of physicists and potential physicists.
Our vision is that our department should be a world leader not only in producing groundbreaking intellectual achievements in physics, but also in training future generations of physicists who are representative of the diversity of all populations. We envision a community where all members are supported to to do their best work.
Founded September 1, 1999, the Geballe Laboratory for Advanced Materials (GLAM) is an Independent Laboratory that reports to the Dean of Research. The Laboratory supports the research activities of more than 30 faculty members from the departments of Applied Physics, Chemistry, Electrical Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering, and Physics.
