Norbert Linke

Norbert Linke is an adjunct professor of physics at Duke University and the IonQ Professor at the University of Maryland. At UMD, he directs the National Quantum Laboratory and leads a research group that works with trapped atomic ions on different applications in quantum physics. These include quantum information processing, in particular the implementation of quantum algorithms and enhancing the power of quantum computers with machine learning techniques, the simulation of interesting quantum phenomena, and quantum networking with entangled near-telecom ion-photons. Linke received his doctorate in atomic and laser physics from the University of Oxford in 2013.
