Girsh Blumberg is an Estonian-American physicist working in the experimental physics fields of condensed matter physics, spectroscopy, nano-optics, and plasmonics. Blumberg is an elected fellow of the American Physical Society (APS),[1] an elected Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (FAAAS) ,[2] and a Distinguished Professor of Physics at Rutgers University.
Girsh Blumberg is best known for his contribution to electronic Raman scattering studies in strongly correlated electron systems, superconductors and quantum spin systems. He has co-authored over 100 publications and is inventor on over 30 patents in the fields of electronic and optical devices, spectroscopy and nano-plasmonics. He and his collaborators made the first observation of the Leggett mode in multiband superconductors, [3] have observed Wigner crystallization in strongly interacting quantum spin ladder systems, [4] [5] have explained long-standing puzzle of the “Hidden Order” in URu2Si2 heavy fermion compound, [6] [7] have made a discovery of the chiral spin waves on the surface of topological insulators, [8] to name a few.
