Mitja Schonecke was member of the Gross group at WMI as a Ph.D. Student between 2000 and 2004.

Ph.D. Thesis: Grenzflächeneffekte zwischen Hochtemperatur-Supraleitern und Normalleitern  (2004)

In his Ph.D. thesis, Mitja Schonecke was studying interfaces between high-temperature superconductors and normal metals. He used tunneling spectrocopy at low temperatures and high magnetic fields to investigate the transport properties of junctions consisting of high-temperature superconductors (S) and normal metals (N). He was particularly interested in the influence of a ferromagnetic material (F). For his experimental study, he fabricated ramp-edge-type junctions. The S/N contacts showed a splitted zero bias conductance peak, what he interpreted as clue for the existence of states with broken time reversal symmetry. At the interface of S/F contacts a natural tunneling barrier was found to form. 

He left WMI in 2004 to start a career as a Patent Attorney. Presently, he is Manager IP Automotive & Aerospace at SKF GmbH, Schweinfurt, Germany.
