Jennifer (Jenny) Coulter
I’m currently a Flatiron Research Fellow at the Center for Computational Quantum Physics (CCQ).
Previously:
- I obtained my PhD in Applied Physics from the Kozinsky group at Harvard Unversity.
- I was a DOE Computational Science Graduate Fellow (CSGF) from 2017-2021.
- I earned my B.S. in physics from Rutgers University in 2017.
Interests
I’m generally interested in computational materials science/condensed matter physics method development efforts. Currently, most of my work focuses on predicting the transport properties of materials.
- I’m a developer of the Phoebe code (a high-performance framework for Phonon and Electron Boltzmann transport Equation solutions).
- You can learn more about Phoebe through its documentation or the manuscript.
- For questions about using Phoebe, open a git discussion or email me directly.
- I’ve used these methods to study transport in specific materials.
- I’ve optimized electrical, thermal, and thermoelectric properties for applications.
- I’m interested in understanding exotic transport phenomena such as hydrodynamic transport.
- Beyond research, I also like to contribute to diversity efforts.
- I was a chair of the Harvard Women in Physics group from spring 2020-2023.
- At Rutgers University, I received an APS Women in Physics grant to form an undergraduate group.
