John Clarke FRS (born 1942) is a British physicist. He is a Professor Emeritus at the University of California, Berkeley.[1]
In the 1980s, Clarke led a research team, that included John M. Martinis and Michel Devoret.[2] They became known for their discoveries in macroscopic quantum phenomena in superconductors. This work is the reason why they won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2025.[2]
