Bioelectromagnetic Information [Ishiyama-Goto] Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab uses magnetism to measure information from living bodies and to act on them.
AboutAbout the lab
Measuring information from living bodies and acting on them.
The Bioelectromagnetic Information Lab researches sensing technologies that receive the information emitted by living bodies, as well as technologies that act on living bodies.
The lab aims to establish electromagnetic communication with living bodies and to understand how they function as information systems.
In Professor Ishiyama's field, the lab works on magnetic sensors and wireless actuators. In Associate Professor Goto's field, it works on materials and devices for spin waves and magneto-optics.
Through developing these technologies, the lab aims to contribute to information and communications as well as to medicine and welfare.
Key terms
- Spin wave
- A phenomenon in which disturbances in the direction of electron spins propagate as a wave through a material with magnetic properties
- Actuator
- A device that converts a force such as electricity or magnetism into motion that moves an object
- Strain gauge
- A sensor that measures the stretching and compression of an object as an electrical signal
ResearchResearch themes
The lab pursues research and development that captures not only the signals emitted by living bodies but also their various functional properties as information, in order to understand them comprehensively. It advances both sensing technologies that receive information from living bodies and technologies that act on them.
*Illustrative imageHigh-Sensitivity Magnetic Sensors and Wireless Actuation
A magnetic strain sensor developed in this field achieves roughly 10,000 times the sensitivity of conventional strain gauges. The lab is also studying wireless actuators, with research underway toward practical use of a small wireless pump and of methods for moving capsule endoscopes through the digestive tract.
*Illustrative imageSpin-Wave and Magneto-Optical Devices and Materials
Sensing devices for reading information from living bodies are sensitive to even slight heat, so circuits that use spin waves instead of electrons are considered promising. To realize complex computational processing with such circuits, the lab also develops devices that use magnetism and light, along with the magnetic and optical materials for them.
