Dr Tobias Lindstrom
Tobias received his PhD in Physics from Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, in 2005.
After his PhD Tobias worked as a postdoctoral researcher at NPL, University of Birmingham and Royal Holloway, University of London. He joined the Quantum Detection Group at NPL as a Senior Research Scientist in 2012 and was promoted to Principal Research Scientist in 2020.
During his time at NPL, Tobias has primarily worked on superconducting quantum technology. In addition to conducting research relevant for the emerging superconducting quantum computing sector, he has also pioneered the use of precision frequency metrology methods for the study of noise in superconducting resonators and qubits.
Tobias’ research interests include many aspects of solid-state quantum information processing. In particular the study of decoherence mechanisms and other topics related to the materials used to fabricate quantum circuits. He is also involved in the development of novel methods and instruments for characterising quantum circuits.
