Masters Students

tiqi-Theodorou

Michalis Theodorou, Master Student
I studied for an Integrated MEng Electrical and Computer Engineering in the National Technical University of Athens, where I specialized in Electronics and Control Systems. My thesis was about investigating electronic materials properties by using Density Functional Theory (DFT). Quantum physics has always been fascinating me and this is the reason for pursuing a MSc Physics in ETH Zurich. I did a semester project about FPGA based signal generation for quantum control in QuDev. Currently, I am doing my thesis in ion transport optimization in long ion chains.

tiqi-Alexander-Jaeger

Alexander Jäger, Master Student
I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Physics at ETH Zurich. Last semester, I completed a project in the TIQI theory sub-group on an implementation of a Toffoli gate using resonance engineering. Having enjoyed my work here at TIQI, I decided to stay for a Master thesis, and will be working on leveraging engineered dissipation to implement quantum algorithms for ground state preparation / quantum machine learning.

tiqi-Roger-Serrat

Roger Serrat Guevara, Master Student
My bachelor studies in engineering physics and computer science (CFIS-UPC, Barcelona) led me to the Quantum Engineering masters at ETH. Here I joined TIQI for my semester project, designing a PCB to automate the testing of trap connectivity. I then switched to industry for a few months to focus on software development for quantum technologies, first doing an internship at Qilimanjaro (Barcelona) on simulation of superconducting circuits, and later at SpeQtral (Singapore) on a postprocessing system for satellite QKD. Now I am back at TIQI for my master thesis to work with the control team on porting the current logic to newly available hardware.

tiqi-Domonique-Zehnder

Dominique Zehnder, Master Student
I completed my Bachelor's degree in Physics at ETH Zürich. During my Master's studies, I was drawn to the captivating field of quantum optics. I am currently working on my Master's thesis with TIQI, where my research revolves around the development and benchmarking of an individual addressing setup for Ca+ ions.

tiqi-Qianlong-He

Qianlong He, Master Student
After completing my double bachelor's degrees program established by Wuhan University and Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1, I moved to ETHz to pursue my Master's degree. I was working on a semester project on the optical tweezer rearrangement algorithm in the EQE group, where I got a chance to learn about neutral atoms and optical tweezers. Now I am doing my master's thesis about the experiment design and implementation of the optical tweezers in TIQI.

tiqi-Cyrill-Durrer

Cyrill Durrer, Master Student
After my apprenticeship in Electronics I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering at Fachhochschule Luzern (HSLU). I continued as Scientific Assistant at HSLU working on FPGA circuits for power-line communication modems. One year later I started my Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering at ETH, where I specialized further in digital circuit design and implemented a neuron model for spiking neural networks as semester project. For my Master’s Thesis, I will develop a fast FPGA readout and processing of image data from a new qCMOS camera which will be used for quantum computing experiments at PSI.
