The construction was completed some time in 1988. At its peak, DXI employed around 300 people. About 60 of these had come from DuPont, 30 from Xerox, and the remainder was hired for the new company. Its mission was to develop technology for graphic arts applications for DuPont and for office applications for Xerox. In all cases, the new technologies would employ electrostatic liquid toners, which were to be manufactured at DXI, and in time, a manufacturing line for toners was designed and built. DXI also was to undertake contract work for affiliated companies, e.g., Fuji Xerox. 

The range of systems that have been studied by force field methods is extremely varied. Some force fields liave been developed to study just one atomic or molecular sp>ecies under a wider range of conditions. For example, the chlorine model of Rodger, Stone and TUdesley [Rodger et al 1988] can be used to study the solid, liquid and gaseous phases. This is an anisotropic site model, in which the interaction between a pair of sites on two molecules dep>ends not only upon the separation between the sites (as in an isotropic model such as the Lennard-Jones model) but also upon the orientation of the site-site vector with resp>ect to the bond vectors of the two molecules. The model includes an electrostatic component which contciins dipwle-dipole, dipole-quadrupole and quadrupole-quadrupole terms, and the van der Waals contribution is modelled using a Buckingham-like function.

Optimized potentials for liquid simulation (OPES) was designed for modeling bulk liquids. It has also seen significant use in modeling the molecular dynamics of biomolecules. OPLS uses five valence terms, one of which is an electrostatic term, but no cross terms.
