Elected as Fellow of the American Physical Society 2020, Division of Materials Physics
Citation: "For seminal contributions to ab initio materials physics of ferroelectric size effects, formation of polar skyrmions, and emergent physical phenomena in them." The American Physical Society has elected the Society's 2020 Fellows. The APS Fellowship Program recognizes members who have made exceptional contributions to the physics enterprise in physics research, important applications of physics, leadership in or service to physics, or significant contributions to physics education. Each year, no more than one half of one percent of the Society membership is recognized by their peers for election to the status of Fellow in the American Physical Society. This year, 163 Fellows were selected and recognized for their contributions to science. To view the complete list of the 2020 APS Fellows and their citations, or to search all APS Fellows to date, visit the APS Fellow Archive here. |
