Dimitri Roditchev is a French physicist of Russian-Ukrainian origin, specializing in electronic properties of nano-materials, superconductors, electron transport, and quantum tunneling phenomena. He is a professor at ESPCI ParisTech and a research director at CNRS (on leave from).

Laureate of Prix Louis Ancel.[1] of French Physical Society (Société Française de Physique) in 2003 for his works on tunneling spectroscopy of high temperature superconductors, Dimitri Roditchev works in Laboratoire de Physique et d'Études des Matériaux[2] (LPEM) where he is team leader of QuantumSpecs[3] group, director of joint team QuEST between the laboratories LPEM-ESPCI[2] and INSP-UPMC,[4] and member of direction board of LPEM.[2]

The research of Dimitri Roditchev at Moscow State University concerned studies of electronic properties of disordered metals and insulators, in relation with metal-insulator and superconductor-insulator phase transitions. In France since 1991, his activities include basic research[5] (ultimately confined superconductivity, quantum vortex, proximity phenomena in hybrid systems, near-critical superconducting states, superconductivity of atomic layers at surfaces in relation with spin-orbit interaction, metal-insulator transition etc.[6]) and engineering of high precision cryogenic equipment for scientific research.[7]

The teaching activity of Dimitri Roditchev includes lectures in Condensed Matter Physics (both basic and advanced levels), advising personal research projects at l’ESPCI-ParisTech. He is author of popular science articles and books,[8][9] public conferences[10][11] and interviews with the media.[12][13]
