Notable Professional Achievements

 

l        Our papers were cited more than 2700 times, the Phys. Rev. Lett. paper(68, 2043, 1992) was cited about 200 times.

 

l        We(D. Wei and G.N Patey, 1992, Phys. Rev. letters) have found that strongly interacting dipolar spheres can form a ferroelectric nematic phase. This was the first demonstration that dipolar forces alone can create an orientationally ordered liquid state. It is also the first time that the existence of a ferroelectric nematic phase has been established for a model liquid. This discovery has created a new direction in search for new liquid crystal materials

 

l        We made the first complete simulation of solid phase explosive reactions reported to date, where the solid NM undergoes chemical decomposition at about 2200 K under ambient pressure; 75 species and 100 elementary reactions were observed with the final products being H2O, CO2, N2 and CNCNC, and the explosive reactions were complete by reaching its final and non-reacting state, which is of far-reaching implication for design and development of new energetic materials (Phys. Rev. Letters, 105, 188302 (2010)
