PROFILE

Zekun Lou

Contributed to the sabia-group/How-Tos repository by developing and refining end-to-end phonon analysis workflows for computational materials science. Leveraging Python, Phonopy, and ASE, the work included building Python scripts and Jupyter Notebooks that guide users through phonon calculations, force evaluations, and band structure plotting. Enhanced the usability and reproducibility of these workflows by updating simulation inputs, integrating OVITO-based visualizations, and improving documentation clarity and rendering stability. Addressed technical challenges such as environment setup and terminology consistency, while also implementing bug fixes and code refactoring. The contributions accelerated onboarding and enabled robust, reproducible phonon analyses for research teams.
