Makoto Nakajima, Professor
0 student voices
The Nakajima Lab (Terahertz Science Group) studies terahertz spectroscopy, terahertz engineering, ultrafast spectroscopy, and metamaterials. Across the terahertz, infrared, and optical regions, the lab covers everything from fundamental physical phenomena to industrial application research. The lab also actively conducts joint research with companies. The lab is part of the Photon and Beam Science Division of the Institute of Laser Engineering, and accepts students as a cooperating laboratory of the School of Engineering and the Graduate School of Engineering.
Akifumi Yogo, Professor

The Laser Science Lab focuses on research and development of power lasers that deliver the world's highest average power. It also studies the development of new laser materials, new methods of laser oscillation and amplification, and beam control technologies. The lab calls a multipurpose system that can be designed on demand through modularization a “smart power laser,” and aims at a wide range of applications such as laser processing, fluorescence analysis, and laser fusion. On the lab's website, it is introduced as the “PLS group (Power Laser System Engineering Group),” and students are assigned to it as a cooperating laboratory of the School of Engineering and the Graduate School of Engineering.
Akifumi Iwamoto, Professor

The Iwamoto Lab (Photon and Quantum Energy Science research area) studies reactor design, fuel, and diagnostics to realize fusion energy using lasers. Fusion power is expected to be a clean energy source that emits no carbon dioxide, but the level of technology needed to build a fusion reactor is still low, and raising it is considered a key challenge. The lab works on topics such as cryogenic targets, blanket systems, laser fusion reactor design, and neutron diagnostics. It also studies fusion materials, as well as neutron source technology and neutron applications aimed at medical use. Research is carried out at the Institute of Laser Engineering, and the lab belongs to the Laser Energy Science Chair (a cooperating chair) of the Division of Electrical, Electronic and Infocommunications Engineering.
Masashi Yoshimura, Professor

The Photon and Quantum Devices research area (Yoshimura Lab) studies nonlinear optical crystals that change the wavelength of laser light, as well as devices for deep-ultraviolet lasers. Professor Masashi Yoshimura's group works on reducing crystal defects, aiming to realize high-power deep-ultraviolet laser processing machines through industry-academia collaboration. Assistant Professor Tomoaki Nambu's group studies fingertip-sized compact deep-ultraviolet laser sources and "unbreakable" optical elements for ultra-large power lasers. As a cooperating chair of the School of Engineering and the Graduate School of Engineering, the lab is in charge of research supervision for undergraduate and graduate students.
Hideo Nagatomo, Professor
0 student voices
The Radiation Hydrodynamic Plasma Physics research area is a lab at the Institute of Laser Engineering, Osaka University, and Professor Hideo Nagatomo and Assistant Professor Kazunori Shibata belong to it. In the Institute of Laser Engineering's introduction of its research groups, Professor Nagatomo is in charge of Physics Informatics in the Theory and Computational Science division, and conducts research that seeks to "understand plasma, from fundamentals to applications, using computational science and AI." In the graduate school, the lab is listed as a research area of the Laser Energy Science Chair in the Electrical Engineering Course of the Division of Electrical, Electronic and Infocommunications Engineering, Graduate School of Engineering, and students can conduct research in this area.
Shohei Shimizu, Professor

The Intelligent Reasoning Lab is a data science and AI lab that focuses on causal discovery. The lab aims to establish causal discovery as a standard analysis method in scientific research and in industry and policy settings, laying the foundation for a society where causal inference is used routinely. Working with researchers and practitioners in fields ranging from the natural and social sciences to engineering and medicine, the lab studies mathematical methodologies for uncovering causal relationships. The lab develops new methodologies that can estimate causal relationships from observational data, even in situations where interventional experiments are difficult.
Kazunori Komatani, Professor

The Knowledge Science Lab (Komatani Lab) studies spoken dialogue systems that can talk with people, using speech recognition and natural language processing technologies. It is a field with two sides: the engineering side of writing programs and building systems, and the scientific side of asking what it means for people to understand each other in conversation. Because the lab deals with the language people use, it also draws on knowledge from linguistics and social psychology. The lab belongs to the Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research and is positioned as a cooperating research group in the Graduate School of Engineering.
Noriko Chikumoto, Professor
0 student voices
The Composite Photonics Lab (Chikumoto Lab) is located at the Institute of Laser Engineering, Osaka University, and studies a broad range of topics, including the development of laser materials that open up new applications, system applications, and nanofabrication applications. Lasers play a role in many fields of science, medicine, communications, and industry, such as high-precision optical instruments, optical communications, and laser processing. In addition to laser technology, the lab works on superconducting materials in which electrons are in a coherent state, and on their application technologies. Research is carried out in groups for materials and application technologies, semiconductor laser system engineering, and power laser photonics.
Akira Oiwa, Professor
0 student voices
The lab studies quantum information processing, centered on semiconductors, that makes use of the quantum-mechanical properties of electron spins and photons. Spintronics, based on the creation and integration of new optical, electronic, and spin materials, is also a main focus of the lab's research. The lab covers the whole process, from creating and characterizing materials to precise quantum transport measurements, with the aim of discovering new phenomena brought about by quantum nanostructures. It is a research division of the Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research at Osaka University, and the lab's website introduces it under the name "Oiwa Lab."
Jun Yamasaki, Professor
0 student voices
The lab develops measurement methods and techniques for electron microscopes, which visualize the invisible fine world at the micron, nano, and atomic scales. It uses a variety of state-of-the-art electron microscopes, including the 3-million-volt ultrahigh-voltage electron microscope, which has the highest accelerating voltage in the world. The lab works on methods for precisely measuring ultrafine materials in three dimensions and on establishing new lensless nanoimaging methods. It is a research division of the Research Center for Ultrahigh Voltage Electron Microscopy, and in the graduate school it is a cooperating research group of the Division of Electrical, Electronic and Infocommunications Engineering, Graduate School of Engineering.
