🎉Another look at SSRL's history:
In 1973, SLAC’s SPEAR storage ring generated the facility’s first X-ray beam (left).
The original pilot project to extract these groundbreaking X-rays consisted of rearranged shielding blocks (right).

Excited to share that Sona Ulicna and I won a poster award at #PVRW last week for our poster ‘PVDF-based backsheet cracking: mapping in-situ phase evolution by X-ray scattering’ which featured work from our recent beamtime @SSRLnews.

So happy to finally have beamtime with Sona Ulicna after working together on a proposal 2 years ago. We’re studying PV polymer backsheet failure mechanisms with a tensile tester mounted on @SSRLnews X-ray scattering beamline 11-3

Different designs of #batteries ages and degrades🪫through different mechanisms! See my latest paper @INL in @Joule_CP about identifying these aging mechanisms using data evolving along with charging-discharging cycles. #battchat #batterytwitter

Examining solar panel materials at the microscale, NIST researchers are exploring the timelines and potential causes of cracks and failures. Get the story: linkedin.com/posts/nist_sola…

Wonderful to see this work published! Happy to still be working on unveiling the mechanism of PVDF-based solar backsheets with Sona and you.

This work started when @igzo_rules and I were at @SLAClab working with @NREL 's Michael Owen-Bellini. Former SLAC postdoc Sona Ulicna joined the team to take it to the finish line!

Enjoyed hearing @Bertoni_ASU enlightening the PV community @IEEEPVSC about the power of #XANES to characterize PV cells. #operando

Solar panel soiling strikes again. Would love to see all the folks with ideas in the comments apply them to solving dust and soil collection on terrestrial solar panels. Earth can get pretty dusty too.

As my power levels diminish due to dust on my solar panels, my team has set my retirement plans in motion. Plans call for a gradual shutdown of instruments, including resting my arm in a “retirement pose.”
