Comment: Likely meets some combination of WP:NPROF/WP:NAUTHOR. Curbon7 (talk) 08:59, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: He does come from a famous family, but that does not confer notability. Via the guidelines, WP:NPROF it needs to be demonstrated that he had a significant impact, for instance many highly cited papers and/or major awards. All that is included here is a few sources on luminescence/electroluminescent. While these are useful papers, there is no demonstration of notability. Since the English Wikipedia has scientists from all countries, the bar is high. Ldm1954 (talk) 08:38, 27 January 2024 (UTC)
Daniel Curie (27 July 1927 – 21 May 2000) was a French physicist and professor of theoretical physics at the Pierre and Marie Curie University in Paris, France. He is recognized for his contributions to the theory of luminescence in crystalline solids.
Biography[edit]
Daniel was a member of the Curie family of scientists; he was the son of Maurice Curie, the grandson of Paul-Jacques Curie, and the grandnephew of Pierre Curie.
Daniel Curie was professor of physics at the science faculty of Jussieu Campus, university Paris VI. He studied the luminescence of crystals,[1] initially together with his father Maurice. In 1956, they jointly published results of this work in the French book Questions actuelles en luminescence cristalline (Current problems on crystalline luminescence).[2] Daniel Curie published many studies on electroluminescence in French journals, particularly in Journal de Physique et le Radium and Journal de Physique.[3] Curie also authored the book Luminescence in cystals,[4] published in 1963, and the French book Champ cristallin et luminescence (Crystal field and luminescence),[5] published in 1968. In the latter he emphasized the application of group theory for the description of the luminescence in crystalline solids.
Besides physics Daniel Curie also cared for nature conservation; an arboretum near his summer residence in the Département Lozère in southern France is named after him.[6] After his death his private collection of crystals was donated to the Pierre et Marie Curie University by his wife Germaine Buchader.[7] Curie is buried in Anthony near Paris, France.
