Somesh Ganguli

Somesh Ganguli is an Academy Research Fellow in the Department of Applied Physics at Aalto University, Finland. His research is conducted within the Atomic Scale Physics research group, focusing on experimental investigations of quantum phenomena in atomically thin materials using advanced scanning probe techniques.

His research encompasses:

• Condensed Matter Physics
• Superconductivity mechanisms in 2D systems
• Quantum phase transitions
• Topological materials and excitations
• 2D magnetism and spin dynamics
• Electronic correlations in van der Waals heterostructures

Analysis of his 2021-2025 publications reveals a cohesive research trajectory centered on monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), where he probes the interplay between superconductivity, magnetism, and electronic order using scanning tunneling microscopy. His work frequently explores emergent phenomena in moiré patterns and confinement-engineered systems, with significant contributions to understanding chiral superconductivity, doped Mott phases, and Kondo physics in reduced dimensions.

Dr. Ganguli's experimental work is conducted within Aalto University's Atomic Scale Physics group, which specializes in atomic-resolution characterization of quantum materials through low-temperature scanning probe methodologies.
