The Constructive Electronics Lab studies how to extract useful technologies from biological neural circuits and apply them to next-generation information-processing hardware. The lab draws on the resilience and distributed nature that neural circuits have refined over a long course of evolution. The Yajima Group (materials, devices, and circuits) and the Kawakami Group (circuits, architecture, and computing principles) conduct their research in collaboration.

The Computer Systems Architecture Lab aims to realize computers for AI applications using innovative devices such as photonic and superconducting devices. Unconstrained by conventional technology, the lab is also working on inventing computers that run on zero energy. The lab's research spans the layers of algorithms, architecture, circuits, and devices, and is carried out in collaboration with researchers inside and outside the university. The lab's website is published jointly with the group of Associate Professor Takeaki Yajima, under the name "Constructive Electronics Lab: Yajima-Kawakami Lab."

The Quantum Device Engineering Lab studies quantum transport phenomena that occur in quantum structures such as semiconductor quantum dots. The lab carries out experiments end to end, from fabricating nanometer-scale devices to measuring electrical conduction at cryogenic temperatures. The spin of a single electron in a quantum dot offers excellent controllability and integrability, and is expected to be applied to quantum computers. Toward the realization of semiconductor quantum computers, the lab develops key component technologies and works on large-scale integration of quantum dots.

The Bio-Inspired Microsystems Lab conducts exploratory research on fabrication technologies and applications of microdevices, based on microfabrication and Bio-MEMS technologies. The lab develops fabrication techniques for microrobots that are as flexible and durable as biological organs, devices for culturing and analyzing cells in isolation at high density, and self-healing devices. In addition to international joint research with UCSD in the US, the lab collaborates with biology labs, research institutions such as the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), and companies, and also works with the Hayashi Lab in the same division. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Sassa Lab."

The Electron Spin Physics and Engineering Lab conducts research on spintronics, aiming to create future devices that will open up the next generation of the electronics industry. Its goal is to create new spintronic devices by combining semiconductors and magnetic materials. The lab's research is built on three pillars: magnetic garnet physics and engineering, semiconductor spintronics, and spin caloritronics. The lab has ongoing or planned international joint research with research groups at universities in countries such as the UK and Sweden.

Hiroki Kondo, Professor

The Atomic Layer Process Science Lab studies, in tiny semiconductor transistors, the reactions of thin films and surfaces at the atomic-layer level and the processes by which devices degrade. Transistors in smartphones are designed at a scale of a few nanometers, which requires technology for stacking metals, oxides, and silicon with atomic-level control. In quantum devices, it is known that even slight disorder in the crystal lattice becomes a source of noise that disturbs quantum states. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Kondo Lab."

The High-Frequency Integrated Circuits and Microwave Communication Devices Lab designs, prototypes, and evaluates integrated circuits (LSI), antennas, and filters used in wireless communication. Its research targets include low-noise integrated circuits for wireless communication, components for ultra-wideband (UWB) radio, compact antennas, and packaging technology that connects chips and antennas. Through joint research with Kyushu University's medical and dental schools and its hospital, the lab also works on developing power supply for medical sensors and in-body sensors. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Kanaya Lab."

The Microdevice Lab researches heterogeneous integration and packaging, which combine different materials, as well as room-temperature bonding technology. It also lists photonics-electronics convergence, hybrid bonding, and chiplets as research themes. The lab also works on electro-optic devices such as thin-film LNOI, and on optical and high-frequency technologies.

The Information Photonics Lab researches optical computing devices and systems that combine optical and nanoscale technologies with information technology. Building on the knowledge and experimental techniques to design and tune optical physical systems at very small scales, the lab works on developing innovative devices that function at the macroscopic scale. Its experimental work is wide-ranging, from proposing and demonstrating the basic principles of optical devices and systems to designing, building, and evaluating their functions. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Tate Lab" ("Tatelabo").

The Micro/Nano Laser Device Lab (Oki Lab) centers on laser research and works not only on using lasers but also on "making lasers." The lab works on digital fabrication with computers and on building devices that can be printed or drawn on, taking advantage of the properties of polymers (plastic materials). Its research areas also include soft optical systems based on silicone rubber, fluorescence-based detection of disease in sweet potatoes, and terahertz-wave wireless communication. The lab holds most of its meetings remotely, and students can also learn fabrication with 3D printers and the use of AI.
