The Quantum Computing Lab conducts research at the interface of information and physics, centered on quantum computers, next-generation computers that compute using the principles of quantum mechanics. The lab studies quantum error correction, which counters the noise that large-scale quantum computers must overcome, and applications of small- and medium-scale NISQ devices to quantum chemistry calculations and quantum machine learning. The lab's research is interdisciplinary, drawing on knowledge from a wide range of fields such as fundamental physics, computer science, programming, and machine learning. Fourth-year undergraduates assigned to the lab first build foundational knowledge by taking turns presenting a quantum information textbook in English in a reading group, and then choose their research topics.

The Lightwave and Microwave Lab uses metamaterials to study technologies that make use of unusual properties of electromagnetic waves. The subtitle of the lab's website is "The Science of Invisibility Cloaks and Artificial Metamaterials," and the lab works on terahertz-wave technologies that support 6G, invisibility cloak technologies, and more. Other research includes controlling the paths of light by coordinate transformation, and a special electromagnetic field in which the electric and magnetic fields are parallel. The lab's website introduces it under the name "Sanada Laboratory."

The Digital Photonics Lab studies concepts and technologies that bridge fundamental optics and mathematical science. By truly fusing optical technology with digital technology, the lab aims to pursue the ultimate performance limits of optical communications. It also sets the goal of opening up optical measurement to the general public. The graduate program's page lists optical fiber communications, digital signal processing, real-time circuit implementation, and nonlinear inference problems as research keywords.

The Medical Molecular Photonics Lab studies photonics, pursuing “visualization” through the science of light. The lab builds its own lasers and optical frequency comb light sources and explores new interactions between light and matter. It also conducts research that applies these results to other fields, mainly medicine and biology. The lab's motto is “Seeing is believing.”

The Ion Trap Quantum Metrology Lab researches and develops on-chip ion traps that combine atomic physics with microfabrication technology. Building on ion trap and laser cooling technologies that individually manipulate atoms at the level of single atoms, the lab advances its research in collaboration with research institutions in Japan and abroad that have microfabrication expertise. The lab pursues a wide range of research activities, including participation in a national project to pioneer new quantum information and quantum metrology technologies, and the establishment of an international joint lab between Osaka University and the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) of Germany. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name “Utako Tanaka Group.”

The Advanced Electronics Lab studies fields that merge electronics and science, such as atomic and molecular electronics and bioelectronics. By creating and measuring extreme environments, the lab aims to deepen materials science and to create new materials, devices, and systems. Its research themes include observing atoms and molecules on solid surfaces, visualizing drug reactions in living organisms, and research approaching the essence of electromagnetic noise. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name “Abe Lab” as a research division of the affiliated Center for Extreme Science.

The Robot Mechanisms Lab conducts research and development on the mechanisms that generate robot motion. Starting from the spherical omnidirectional wheel "Omni-Ball," the lab systematically pursues research and development on omnidirectional drive mechanisms and other extreme mechanisms. The lab also puts effort into the entire process of realizing a mechanism, from generating the original idea behind its principle to designing and prototyping the actual hardware. As applications of robot mechanisms, the lab has in mind mobile robot bases and grasping devices for use in disaster areas.

The Dialogue Intelligence Systems Lab conducts research and education with the goal of realizing dialogue intelligence in robots and systems that coexist with humans. The lab believes that communication through language is essential for robots and similar systems to operate in the same space as humans. To realize dialogue functions that work in the real world, the lab handles diverse modalities, such as speech, images, and robot motion, with language at the center. While developing systems and robots that are useful in daily life, the lab also aims to clarify what human intelligence is.

The Social Robotics Group (Yoshikawa Lab) studies robots that are accepted as members of society and contribute to forming and sustaining it. As the structure of human society continues to change, there is a need for technologies that support the healthy social participation of all people, including the socially vulnerable. The lab believes that for robots to stay close to individuals and connect people with society, research is needed on robots equipped with human-like sociality. The lab uses a variety of robots that differ in form and capability, including robots that behave like humans, robots that can manipulate objects and move around, and CG robots.
