Chinese-American condensed matter physicist From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jun Zhu is a Chinese-American experimental condensed matter physicist known for her research in valleytronics[1][2] and more generally on electronic transport in two-dimensional materials, particularly graphene.[3] She is a professor of physics at Pennsylvania State University.[4]
Zhu graduated from the University of Science and Technology of China in 1996, and completed her Ph.D. in 2003 at Columbia University,[1][4] working there with Horst Ludwig Störmer.[5] After postdoctoral research at Cornell University, she joined the Pennsylvania State University physics department as a faculty member in 2006.[1]
In 2020 Zhu was named a Fellow of the American Physical Society, after a nomination from the APS Division of Condensed Matter Physics, "for fundamental advances in the understanding of charge-, valley- and spin-transport in 2D materials".[3]
