Prize Recipient


Robert W. Balluffi

Citation:

"For his seminal experimental and analytical contributions, which have clarified our fundamental understanding of the atomic mechanisms of sintering, Kirkendal phenomena, dislocation climb, solid-state diffusion, the production and recovery of radiation damage, grain boundary structure and energetics in metals and ceramics, and his accompanying lucid writing and verbal skills in presenting these investigations."
