Frank H. Stillinger (born August 15, 1934[1]) is an American theoretical chemist and a namesake of the Lubachevsky–Stillinger algorithm.
Stillinger graduated from the University of Rochester in 1955; he earned a Ph.D. in theoretical chemistry from Yale in 1958.
In September 1959 he joined the Research Area of Bell Labs in Murray Hill, NJ.
[1] Stillinger's research career has concentrated on condensed matter phenomena, both thermodynamic and kinetic.
This research has included creation and computer simulation of molecular interaction potentials for water,[3] silicon,[4] and spontaneous-chiral-symmetry-breaking substances.
