Katsunori Makihara, Professor
0 student voices
Makihara Lab researches the semiconductor technologies that underpin the advancement of electronics. The lab's research spans everything from materials science to the processes used to fabricate devices. The lab works on incorporating nanostructures such as silicon-based quantum dots into devices, improving transistor performance, and developing devices that combine light and electronics as well as new types of memory. Through joint research with overseas research institutions and presentations at academic conferences, students can develop the abilities expected of independent engineers and researchers.
Jun Suda, Professor

Suda Lab researches next-generation power devices made with gallium nitride (GaN), a semiconductor. Today's power devices are made of silicon, but they are approaching the limits of the material, leaving little room for large improvements in performance. GaN has excellent properties not only for blue LEDs but also as a material for power devices. The lab handles everything from evaluating crystal properties to designing and prototyping device structures, and, depending on the theme, conducts joint research with other labs at Nagoya University and with universities and companies in Japan and abroad.
Masamitsu Tanaka, Professor

The Quantum Integrated Devices and Systems Lab researches electronics based on superconductivity. By actively using superconductivity, it is possible to build ultrahigh-speed, ultra-low-power circuits that cannot be achieved with semiconductors or conventional superconducting devices. The lab aims to realize ultimate information processing circuits approaching thermal and quantum limits, and high-speed computers that work together with quantum computing. The lab collaborates with research institutions in Japan and abroad and also hosts international workshops, so there are many opportunities to interact with researchers and students from overseas.
Kodo Kawase, Professor

The lab studies sources and detectors of terahertz waves, a type of electromagnetic wave, and their applications. Terahertz waves have characteristics of both radio waves and light, and pass through materials such as paper, plastic, and wood. Using wavelength conversion technology for laser light, the lab has succeeded in developing a widely tunable terahertz source that is far more compact and easier to use than sources such as free-electron lasers. The lab is also developing new terahertz imaging technologies for applications such as inspecting mail and pharmaceuticals.
Yoshio Honda, Professor

The lab researches new devices made from nitride semiconductors. Building on crystal growth technology, the lab works on light-emitting diodes (LEDs), laser diodes, solar cells, and power devices for power conversion. Applications span a wide range of fields, including power devices for energy saving, high-frequency devices for 6G-era communications, and ultraviolet laser sources that can be used for drug discovery and sterilization. The lab conducts its research with the aim of training people who will lead the world in new fields.
Nobuyuki Ikarashi, Professor
0 student voices
The Ikarashi Lab uses electron microscopes as its main tool to analyze the structure and properties of materials such as semiconductors at the nanoscale. Using advanced analysis techniques such as electron holography, which can directly visualize electric and magnetic fields at the nanoscale, the lab researches devices with new functions based on fundamental research on material properties. The lab studies the inside of transistors in operation, and analyzes magnetic materials and nitride semiconductors such as gallium nitride (GaN). The lab is located in the Center for Integrated Research of Future Electronics, Institute of Materials and Systems for Sustainability.
Yutaka Ohno, Professor
0 student voices
The Ohno Lab uses nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes to research transparent, freely deformable flexible electronic devices. Its goal is a sensor system that fits the human body, with everything from the sensors to the circuits to the wireless section made of soft materials. The lab studies new materials and devices from the perspectives of materials, physical properties, processes, and evaluation. It is also advancing the integration of electronics with biology and medicine.
Toshiaki Fujii, Professor
0 student voices
The Image Informatics Lab (Fujii Lab) researches technologies for handling visual media, such as light fields and holography. It works on topics ranging from image capture mechanisms such as event cameras and camera arrays, to light field displays and data compression. In graduate school, the lab belongs to the Department of Information and Communication Engineering, Graduate School of Engineering.
Hiroshi Hasegawa, Professor
0 student voices
The Hasegawa Lab studies the high-capacity optical fiber networks that the next generation will need. With the use of video, social media, and the cloud, the volume of traffic flowing through optical fiber networks is growing rapidly. The lab tackles this surging traffic from both the network perspective and the system and device perspective. Its work spans network control, equipment that switches signals while keeping them in optical form, signal processing in transceivers, and physical phenomena inside optical fibers.
Nobuo Kawaguchi, Professor
0 student voices
The Kawaguchi Lab aims to build a human-friendly ubiquitous society, and studies mechanisms by which the information devices around us are connected through networks and work together. Its scope is broad, from fundamental networking technology to environmental sensing, infrastructure software, interfaces, and the development of demonstration systems. Following the policies of "pursue what interests you thoroughly" and "value making things work," the lab proceeds from theory through data collection to building working demonstration systems. Its research themes also extend to location information systems, activity sensing, environment modeling, and applied research on autonomous driving.
