TIMOTHY C. RALPH
BSc (Hons), Macquarie University, Sydney
PhD Australian National University, Canberra

 

TIMOTHY C. RALPH

 

 

Associate Professor of Physics The University of Queensland
Centre Node Manager
Queensland
Program Manager Linear Optics Quantum Computation - Theory
QEII Fellow

Research Interests

Tim has extensive experience in quantum optics as well as optical implementations of quantum information techniques. Tim had postdoctoral experience at the Australian National University and the University of Auckland before going to the University of Queensland in 1999. He took up a QEII Research Fellowship there the following year. Tim's research involves both purely theoretical investigations and close collaborations with experimental groups.

In his role as a Queensland Node Manager within the Centre, Tim oversees the experimental and theoretical program in Quantum Optics at the University of Queensland and UNSW@ADFA and the theoretical Quantum Control and Measurement program at Griffith University. Tim is also Program Manager for the Linear Optics Quantum Computation Theory Program that was established in late 2000, and seeks to demonstrate the feasibility of quantum computational gates based on linear optics, single photon sources and electro-optic feedforward techniques.
