For his discovery of broken symmetry local structures in exotic electronic materials, his elaboration of their nature and their importance to the material properties, in particular in PbTe, iridates, manganites, and cuprates

For his work on relaxor ferroelectrics that have provided new insights into the role of polar nano-regions in determining the extreme electromechanical properties of these materials

For outstanding neutron scattering studies of hydrogen-framework interactions in metal-organic frameworks
