Edwin Menzel was member of the Gross groups as a Master and Ph.D. Student, as well as a postdoctoral researcher between 2006 and 2015.

Master Thesis: Geometrieabhängigkeit des TMR-Effekts in Tunnelkontakten aus Magnetit (2009)
Ph.D. Thesis: Propagating Quantum Microwaves: Dual-Path State Reconstruction and Path Entanglement (2013)

In his Ph.D. thesis, Edwin Menzel was doing pioneering research on superconducting quantum circuits and propagating quantum microwaves at WMI. For example, he was developing the dual-path method for performing state tomography of quantum microwaves. Propagating quantum microwaves are promising for quantum communication and information processing protocols. In this thesis, Edwin Menzel succeeded in reconstructing the state of quantum microwaves with the dual-path method based on a beam splitter, off-the-shelf linear amplifiers and cross-correlation signal recovery techniques. Furthermore, making use of non-classical squeezed states produced by a Josephson parametric amplifier, he generated and detected continuous-variable frequency-degenerate path entanglement.

He left WMI in 2015 to join Rohde & Schwarz GmbH in Munich where he is filing regularly patents in microwave technology and testing systems.
