Physics (Fuminori Honda) Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that explores the solid-state properties of compounds containing rare earths and actinides.
AboutAbout the lab
Exploring the properties that f electrons create, starting from crystals.
The Physics (Fuminori Honda) Lab studies the solid-state properties of compounds containing rare earths and actinides.
These elements have f electrons and show a wide variety of properties, including magnetism, superconductivity, heavy fermions, multipolar order, and skyrmion states.
By combining techniques for growing high-quality crystals with high-pressure techniques, the lab synthesizes new materials while controlling interactions, and explores their properties.
As a faculty member of the Isotope Integrated Safety Management Center, Professor Honda is also in charge of safety management for radiation, radioisotopes, nuclear fuel materials, and similar items across the university.
Key terms
- f electron
- An electron found in rare-earth and actinide elements. It underlies diverse properties such as magnetism and superconductivity.
- Heavy fermion
- A state in which strong interactions between electrons make the electrons behave like heavy particles.
- High-quality crystal
- A good-quality crystal with few impurities or irregularities.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab investigates the diverse electronic states shown by compounds containing rare earths and actinides. Beyond the state of the f electrons themselves, it focuses on unusual properties that arise in special crystal structures under the influence of spin-orbit interaction.
