Saurabh Maiti

Dr. Saurabh Maiti serves as Associate Professor of Physics at Concordia University (2024–present), previously holding an Assistant Professor position there (2019–2024). His research focuses on condensed matter theory with expertise in spin-orbit coupled systems, unconventional superconductors, and engineered 2D lattices.

His academic credentials include a PhD in Physics from the University of Wisconsin, Madison (2013) and a BTech(Honors) in Electronics and Electrical Communications Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, India (2007).

Maiti investigates quantum phenomena in spin-orbit systems where parity breaking generates chiral-spin waves for spintronics applications, studies correlation effects in unconventional superconductors using spectroscopic probes like Raman scattering and THz spectroscopy, and explores engineered 2D lattices with flat bands to examine interactions between strong correlations, topology, and gauge fields. His work spans heterostructures, quantum wells, graphene multilayers, and transition metal dichalcogenides.

Recent publications reveal novel light-matter coupling mechanisms via spins and many-body selection rules, demonstrating his leadership in topological quantum phenomena and spectroscopic response modeling in 2D materials.

Key recognitions include:

• Double Editor's Suggestion for plasmon research using light-spins coupling (2024)
• PRB Kaleidoscope feature (2019)
• Altmetric score >100 (2017)
• Two Physics synopses (2011)
• Dirac Fellowship at National High Magnetic Field Lab (2013–2015)

As leader of the Maiti Research Group, he directs theoretical investigations into quantum materials while maintaining active outreach through lectures at institutions like Northwest Missouri State University (2024) on quantum physics relevance and Dawson College (2020) on quantum applications. His teaching portfolio includes graduate and undergraduate courses in condensed matter physics and quantum field theory.
