Alexander Rommens rejoined our group in fall 2025, after starting his external Master’s thesis in the group of Prof. William D. Oliver at MIT in Boston, USA. His thesis work focuses on the design and simulation of a modular quantum computing architecture that utilizes waveguide QED to achieve remote entanglement between physically separated quantum processors. His previous work has centered on developing scalable quantum hardware. As a research assistant in the Quantum Device Lab, he worked on implementing modular quantum computers using flip-chip architectures. His prior experience also includes developing fluxonium qubit arrays at Atlantic Quantum, contributing to superconducting circuit design in the Bosonic Quantum Information group at PSI, and investigating loss mechanisms in qubit flip-chips within the Hybrid Quantum Systems group at ETH.
