The Applied Superconductivity Lab studies how to apply superconductivity, in which electrical resistance drops to zero, to a wide range of fields. Superconducting wires can transmit electricity without loss, and they can carry far more current than copper wires of the same thickness, producing strong magnetic fields. The lab clarifies the invisible electromagnetic phenomena that occur inside superconducting materials and uses that understanding to design devices. The work proceeds through both experimental evaluation and large-scale simulations on a dedicated computer server.

The Earth Atmosphere Measurement group (Hashiguchi Lab) applies the latest technologies in electrical and electronic engineering and in communications and information engineering to the science of Earth's atmosphere. To capture changes in the Earth's environment and predict the future, the atmosphere must first be observed precisely. The lab develops its own remote sensing instruments to collect atmospheric data, and analyzes that data together with data from international observation networks. Its research is interdisciplinary, lying at the boundary between engineering and science, and the lab also puts great effort into international collaborative research.

The Device Process Engineering Lab studies new ways of making materials and devices to help solve energy problems. Using thin-film fabrication techniques that control structure and composition at the atomic level, the lab creates oxide thin films with new structures and functions. Using methods such as terahertz spectroscopy with ultrashort-pulse lasers, the lab investigates the motion of electrons and ions inside materials. The lab handles the whole process consistently, from material synthesis to device fabrication and the measurement and analysis of properties.

The Plasma Energy Conversion Lab conducts basic research on magnetically confined plasma for nuclear fusion. By finely controlling the interaction between charged particles and electromagnetic fields, the lab generates and heats high-temperature plasma and drives current in it. The lab also explores methods of injecting neutral particle beams from large ion sources to create high-density plasma and improve confinement. The lab develops its own diagnostic instruments using microwaves and spectroscopy, and pursues both experiment and theory.

The Electrical Information Systems Lab researches the building of systems that integrate energy engineering, information engineering, and control engineering, along with the nonlinear science and data science that underlie them. Its aim is to establish a theory for extracting, as information, the mathematical structure hidden in the complex dynamics that occur at many scales in the real world. Based on the extracted information, the lab builds systems and devices with new functions. Its research methods range from theory to numerical computation, experiments, and field demonstrations.

The Spatiotemporal Sensing Lab (Biological Function Engineering Lab) studies the remarkable functions of living organisms using cutting-edge measurement technology and applies the findings to medicine and welfare. It focuses in particular on the human nervous system, measuring, analyzing, and imaging its function and structure noninvasively to investigate how the brain processes information at a high level. Its research is wide-ranging, from measuring signals with magnetic sensors to computer-based analysis of sound, images, and brain signals.

The Intelligent Circuit Design Lab uses the mathematics of AI and networks to realize new types of circuits, establish design methods for them, and advance AI itself. Electric circuits are used to realize a wide range of functions based on physical phenomena. The Internet is a global-scale circuit that carries information on electromagnetic phenomena, and power electronics achieves its functions through the physics of new devices such as SiC and GaN.

The Optical Functional Device Engineering Lab (Funato Lab) works on the emergence and elucidation of new physical properties based on the interaction between light and matter, and on optical devices and applications of light that make use of them. By controlling nanostructures, the lab aims to develop the ultimate light-emitting material, one that emits light in any desired color, at any desired size, and in any desired location, with 100% efficiency. The lab also works on the fundamental optical properties and materials that underpin solid-state lighting, as well as applications in biology and medicine.
