About

I am an experimental physicist at Microsoft Quantum Lab Delft, the Netherlands. My research is focused on realizing topological quantum devices, which requires me to develop new electrical measurement techniques as well as novel fabrication tools. My main areas of expertise are semiconductor physics, spin-orbit coupling, and quantum transport in semiconductor-superconductor hybrid materials.

I have obtained my PhD from RWTH Aachen University under the supervision of Prof. Thomas Schäpers. Before joining Microsoft, I worked as a postdoctoral researcher in Prof. Leo Kouwenhoven’s lab at Delft University of Technology.
