A condensed matter theory lab that investigates the properties of materials at the microscopic level using first-principles calculations.

AboutAbout the lab
Solving matter at the microscopic level through computation
Otani-Hagiwara Lab aims to elucidate the properties of materials at the microscopic level using computational physics methods, including first-principles electronic structure calculations.
Members each pursue independent topics, such as electrochemical interfaces, solid surfaces and interfaces, and ion conduction in solid electrolytes.
The lab also works on research that combines data science with first-principles calculations.
On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Computational Quantum Condensed Matter Group."
Key terms
- First-principles electronic structure calculation
- A method of computing the state of electrons in a material on a computer, based on the fundamental laws of quantum mechanics
- Electrochemical interface
- The boundary, such as that between an electrode and a solution, where electrochemical reactions take place
- Solid electrolyte
- A solid material that conducts electricity through the movement of ions
