Patent professional
 

Dr. Robert Neagu has been a patent attorney candidate at MERH-IP since July 2025 and is currently pursuing qualification as a German patent attorney and admission as a representative before the European Patent Office.

He studied physics at the Technical University of Munich with a focus on solid-state physics. In his master's thesis (2020), he developed an FPGA-based detector that enables tomography of propagating quantum microwaves. To this end, he implemented real-time state reconstruction on an FPGA platform and achieved an acceleration of around eight times compared to the previous ADC-based solution, thereby enabling certain quantum protocols, such as quantum teleportation.

He then earned his doctorate at the Chair of Low Energy Particle Physics at TUM in close collaboration with the FRM II research reactor in Garching. As part of his dissertation, “Position Resolved Neutron Depth Profiling with the N4DP Instrument” (2024), he led a BMBF project, developed a highly segmented double-sided silicon detector with self-triggering ASIC electronics, established and optimized measurement setups, programmed evaluation software and simulations, and analyzed complex data from multi-channel detector systems. Prior to that, he worked for several years as a researcher in the PGAA research group at FRM II.

Mr. Neagu has particular expertise in the areas of semiconductor detectors, gamma spectroscopy, neutron techniques, electronics development, signal processing, physical measurement technology, and software development.
