Jiang Liu, Professor
1 student voices
The Liu Lab studies intelligent sensing systems that combine signal processing, communications, sensor technology, AI, and edge-cloud collaborative computing. Its targets span a wide range of fields, including autonomous driving, robotics, human-machine integration, and healthcare. The lab goes beyond basic theory, covering everything from algorithms to hardware to implementation in real environments.
Shun Uchino, Associate Professor
1 student voices
The Uchino Lab uses the methods of theoretical physics to study quantum many-body systems, which consist of a large number of quantum-mechanical degrees of freedom. The lab focuses on artificial quantum systems such as cold atoms, which are leading candidates for quantum computers and quantum simulators. The lab studies the quantum phenomena that emerge in these artificial quantum systems, in collaboration with experimental groups in Japan and abroad.
Tetsuya Kawanishi, Professor
1 student voices
The Kawanishi Lab studies systems that integrate optical communication and wireless communication. Radio waves and light are both electromagnetic waves, but because the frequencies used for each have differed greatly, they have developed separately until now. Drawing on the strengths of both electronic and optical technologies, the lab works on devices and systems that handle radio waves and light seamlessly. Combining sensing with communication is also a new goal of the lab.
Yohua Shi, Professor
1 student voices
Shi Lab is an integrated systems lab aiming for low power consumption and high reliability in large-scale integrated circuits (LSI). To reduce the power consumption and heat generation of electronic devices, the lab works on low-power and low-voltage circuit techniques. To cope with variability in transistor characteristics that comes with miniaturization, it also studies the design of circuits with self-adjusting and self-repairing functions. The lab also researches energy harvesting circuits, which convert ambient energy such as heat, vibration, and light into electricity.
Wataru Norimatsu, Professor
1 student voices
The Norimatsu Lab studies the crystal growth of new low-dimensional materials and the clarification of their structures and electronic states at the atomic level. By heating SiC crystals at high temperatures, the lab makes thin carbon-based materials such as graphene and carbon nanotubes. The atomic arrangements and electronic states of the resulting materials are examined in detail using electron microscopes and other instruments.
Tetsuya Ogata, Professor
1 student voices
Ogata Lab studies new approaches to making things by combining robotics and machine learning. The lab works on combining deep learning, an artificial neural network model, with robots that have many degrees of freedom. Its topics include imitation learning, research linking actions and language, and mechanisms for humans and robots to collaborate. Students join the lab seminar in their third year, and in the second semester they work in groups on development using the lab's robots.
Yoshihiko Arao, Professor
1 student voices
The Arao Lab studies how to bring out the excellent properties of nanomaterials such as graphene in order to create new mechanical materials. Nanosheets tend to aggregate and are difficult to disperse, so the lab researches techniques for mass-producing high-quality nanosheets at low cost. Using the nanosheets it produces, the lab works on developing high-strength plastics, materials with high thermal conductivity, transparent conductive films, and more.
Eiji Iwase, Professor
1 student voices
The Iwase Lab studies micromachines and MEMS, tiny machines ranging in size from tens of nanometers to hundreds of micrometers. In the "small world," electrostatic force, friction, and surface tension have a greater influence than gravity, so approaches different from those used for large machines are needed. By actively exploiting these characteristics, the lab researches how to assemble fine structures, as well as sensors, actuators, displays, and other devices that have advantages at small scales.
Yutaka Ohta, Professor
1 student voices
The Ohta-Fujisawa Lab works with industry to study the mechanisms of unsteady phenomena that occur inside turbomachinery. Unstable phenomena inside turbomachinery lead to problems such as unstable operation, increased noise, and equipment damage. Using large-scale experimental facilities and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis code developed in the lab, the lab works to clarify these phenomena.
Kiyoshi Saito, Professor
1 student voices
Saito Lab researches energy conversion engineering spanning electrical, mechanical dynamics, and thermal energy systems. Using "circuit theory," which can be applied in common to analyses in different engineering fields, the lab has built a unified analytical theory for energy systems. Based on this theory, the lab works on developing thermal energy equipment such as heat pumps and on building a decarbonized society that makes use of hydrogen energy and renewable energy.
