Hiromichi Niikura, Professor
0 student voices
Niikura Lab uses lasers that emit light for an extremely short time to measure ultrafast changes in atoms and molecules. One attosecond is 10⁻¹⁸ seconds. Being able to resolve times this short makes it possible to follow the motion of electrons, which is faster than the changes in molecular shape. The measurements use high-intensity ultrashort laser pulses and attosecond laser pulses in the extreme ultraviolet range (high harmonic generation). The aim is to capture changes in the structure and in the electronic states of atoms and molecules.

Takahisa Harayama, Professor
0 student voices
The Harayama Lab studies the origin and function of randomness and complexity that appear in a wide range of problems, based on nonlinear physics such as chaos. The lab values a perspective that looks simultaneously from both the mathematical, theoretical side and its exact opposite, the applied side. The lab builds theories of chaos in classical dynamical systems, quantum chaos, and wave chaos, and applies the results to nonlinear optics, solid-state physics, and new devices. The lab's style is that stepping into applications, in turn, brings fundamental and theoretical problems to light.

Takeshi Fukuhara, Professor (Fixed-term)
0 student voices
The Fukuhara Lab uses atoms cooled to ultracold temperatures with lasers to experimentally study the behavior of quantum many-body systems made up of many particles. When particles gather, various phenomena arise from the interactions between particles and from the properties of quantum statistics, but solving the problem generally becomes difficult. Cold atoms can be described by very simple physical models and their conditions can be finely tuned, which makes them an excellent platform for studying quantum many-body systems. The lab aims to deepen understanding by achieving ultimate control over quantum many-body systems, and to connect that understanding to applications.

Takashi Mizokawa, Professor
0 student voices
The Mizokawa Lab investigates the states of electrons that underlie the electrical, magnetic, and optical properties that various solids exhibit. It uses spectroscopic experimental techniques that employ relatively high-energy light, from ultraviolet to X-rays. When light is shone on a solid in a vacuum, electrons are ejected; by measuring their energy and momentum, one can determine the energy and momentum of the electrons inside the solid. The main subjects are transition-metal compounds and rare-earth compounds that show properties such as magnetism, superconductivity, and metal-insulator transitions.

Shigeo Morishima, Professor
0 student voices
The Morishima Lab's research goal is to contribute to a safe and secure society, an enriched quality of life, and Japan's traditional culture through advanced technology. Using physics and mathematics as tools, the lab works on digital signal processing, computer vision, computer graphics, and human-computer interaction. The lab places importance on not stopping at demonstrating technical capability, but on giving it concrete form as visible content and practically useful systems. A distinguishing feature of this lab is that its ultimate target is directed toward human happiness and rich sensibility and culture.
