Alexander Baust was member of the Gross group at WMI as a master and Ph.D. student between 2009 and 2015.

Master Thesis: Characterization of Flux-driven Josephson Parametric Amplifiers (2010)
Ph.D. Thesis: Tunable Coupling and Ultrastrong Interaction in Circuit Quantum Electrodynamics (2015)

Alexander Baust was working on superconducting quantum circuits, in particular on establishing strong and ultra-strong coupling in circuit QED systems. He left WMI in June 2015 to join the German Patent and Trade Mark Office (DPMA).
