Yoshizumi Miyoshi, Professor
0 student voices
The Miyoshi Lab studies phenomena in the region from the Sun to the Earth (geospace). The lab combines state-of-the-art observation instruments, data analysis techniques, and computer simulations. Using large-scale data from satellites and other platforms, along with machine learning, the lab works on space weather and space plasma. The lab also develops observation instruments to be carried on satellites and sounding rockets.

Giichiro Uchida, Professor

The Uchida-Suzuki Lab studies how to generate low-temperature plasma, measure it, and use it for making materials. The lab designs discharge, electrode, and equipment conditions to control plasma suited to the target process. Using imaging measurement and modeling, the lab investigates spatial structures and particle motion inside plasma. The lab is extending this work to semiconductor manufacturing processes and to functional materials and materials for energy devices.

Kenji Ishikawa, Professor
0 student voices
The Ishikawa Lab studies new technologies built on low-temperature plasma science. Plasma, generated by creating a discharge in a gas, is used for deposition and etching of the semiconductors that are essential for smartphones and other devices. By observing the behavior of ions and radicals in plasma and modeling surface reactions at the atomic level, the lab aims to control processing. The lab also uses plasma technology to make new materials, such as carbon materials suited to battery electrodes.

Katsunori Makihara, Professor

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
0 student voices
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
0 student voices
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
0 student voices
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
0 student voices
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.
