Accelerator on a Chip Lab
Each "Accelerator on a chip" is nanostructured using advanced fabrication techniques.

ACHIP article & illustration featured in Advanced Optical Journal
Huiyang Deng and co-workers have leveraged the high laser damage threshold and moderate conductivity of Ga203 to demonstrate the first Ga203-based laser...

Dielectric Laser Acceleration
The ACHIP program aims to use lasers to accelerate lower-energy electrons to nearly light speed.

Accelerator on a Chip Lab
The nanoscale patterns of SLAC and Stanford's accelerator on a chip gleam in rainbow colors prior to being assembled and cut into their final forms.

About Us
We are an international collaboration that includes world-renowned experts in accelerator physics, laser physics, nanophotonics and nanofabrication.

Research Highlights
We use laser light to propel electrons through a series of artfully crafted chips, dramatically shrinking the size and cost of particle accelerators.

ACHIP in the News
Stanford ACHIP PI, Robert Byer, was invited to speak on the topic: ‘Microchip Accelerators – Laser-driven particle accelerators-on-a-silicon-chip’ at the Philosophical Society of Washington Science meeting in November 2021.
