D. de Fontaine mainly investigates Phase diagram, Thermodynamics, Condensed matter physics, Cluster expansion and Alloy. His Phase diagram research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Multiplet, Ab initio computations, Metastability, Stacking and Enthalpy. His work carried out in the field of Thermodynamics brings together such families of science as Mathematical model, Phase and CALPHAD.

D. de Fontaine does research in Condensed matter physics, focusing on Electronic structure specifically. His Cluster expansion research integrates issues from Statistical physics, Ising model, Cluster algebra, Cluster and Atom. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Ising model, Orthonormal basis and Quantum mechanics is strongly linked to Lattice.

Between 1992 and 2012, his most popular works were:

  • Cluster Approach to Order-Disorder Transformations in Alloys (329 citations)
  • First-Principles Calculation of the Pressure Dependence of Phase Equilibria in the Al-Li System (97 citations)
  • Embedded-atom-method study of structural, thermodynamic, and atomic-transport properties of liquid Ni-Al alloys (79 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Condensed matter physics
  • Electron

D. de Fontaine spends much of his time researching Condensed matter physics, Phase diagram, Cluster expansion, Thermodynamics and Enthalpy. D. de Fontaine specializes in Condensed matter physics, namely Cluster. His research integrates issues of Crystallography, Relaxation, Neutron diffraction and Metastability in his study of Phase diagram.

The various areas that he examines in his Cluster expansion study include Tetrahedron, Hamiltonian and Ising model. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Ising model, narrowing it down to issues related to the Lattice, and often Octahedron, Polyhedron, Multiplet and Mathematical physics. The concepts of his Thermodynamics study are interwoven with issues in Aluminium and Neutron scattering.
