Background
Henry is a Trainee Patent Attorney in the Technology, Software and Engineering Group. He joined Dehns in 2025, having graduated from the University of Oxford with a Master’s degree in Physics.
Over the course of his studies, he covered a wide range of topics from symmetry and special relativity to particle physics, to fluid dynamics, and beyond. He specialised in his fourth year in condensed matter physics, lasers, and quantum information processing.
The latter involved the theory behind, and implementations of: quantum algorithms, properties of quantum channels and communication methods, potential large-scale quantum computers (ion traps, atomic optical lattices, NMR, etc.), and quantum cryptography, among others.
His Master’s project combined his favoured quantum and condensed matter aspects: it concerned the amplification of photoluminescence of perovskite (CsPbBr3) nanowires and quantum dots through plasmonic resonances with metal nanoparticles, with a long-term view to generating reliable sub-Poissonian emission of light for application in potential photonic quantum computers.
Type of clients and client work
Henry works with clients of all sizes, ranging from small individual inventors to large multinational corporations.
Expertise
Henry has experience working on cases on a variety of subject matter, including quantum computing and other high-tech systems, beverage dispensers, and aircraft mechanical systems. A particularly exciting one of his early cases involved prosecuting a cache for storing and ordering quantum bits before the EPO.
