Tetsu Tatsuma, Professor
Materials & Nanotech0 student voices
The Tatsuma Lab studies materials and devices that convert energy, information, and substances, using electrochemistry and plasmon resonance. When metals such as gold are made into very small nanoparticles, they absorb light and take on vivid colors. The lab uses these nanoparticles to capture light and either convert its energy into electricity or use it to drive chemical reactions. The lab aims to use light to create new functions that have never existed before.
Hiroshi Fujioka, Professor
Semiconductors & Electronic Devices0 student voices
The Fujioka Lab uses chemical methods to research new electronic devices that society will need in the future. In a society where artificial intelligence is widespread, components with unprecedented levels of performance will be needed, such as devices that can communicate large amounts of data at high speed. Developing such devices requires knowledge of chemistry, including new materials and new fabrication methods. The lab works on technology for growing semiconductor crystals at low temperatures and on the development of micro-LED displays.
Jun Takeya, Professor
Semiconductors & Electronic Devices0 student voices
The Takeya Lab studies devices made with organic semiconductors, which are soft and easy to fabricate. Because organic semiconductors can be applied as a solution to form films, they are expected to enable electronic components that are inexpensive and place a small burden on the environment. The lab leads this field, for example by producing organic transistors with the world's highest performance simply by coating a solution. The lab pursues basic research on molecular chemistry and electron behavior together with the development of new devices.
Hiroyuki Noji, Professor
Bio & Life Sciences0 student voices
The Noji Lab studies how the "biomolecular machines" that work inside the body function, examining them one molecule at a time. At the core of its research is ATP synthase, and the lab was the first in the world to demonstrate that this enzyme is a rotary molecular motor. Using a technology it developed for its research that arranges very small chambers in an array, the lab also works on analytical methods that count molecules one by one and on building artificial cells. The lab aims to pursue curiosity-driven science to its fullest and to refine the technologies that emerge from it into forms that everyone can use.
Ishikita Hiroshi, Professor
Bio & Life Sciences0 student voices
Using the molecular structures of proteins as a starting point, the Ishikita Lab conducts research that clarifies their functions and mechanisms through theoretical methods. Proteins are built from a limited set of amino acids, yet they take a wide variety of shapes and perform many functions, such as transporting electrons and substances or acting as sensors. Rather than simply calculating numerical values, the lab places importance on extracting the universal mechanisms underlying how proteins work. With engineering applications in mind, another of the lab's research goals is to find design principles for functional molecules by studying processes such as photosynthesis.
Kazuyuki Ishii, Professor
Chemistry & Catalysis0 student voices
The Ishii Lab studies new functions of materials that combine organic and inorganic components, from the perspectives of coordination chemistry, photochemistry, and spin chemistry. Metal complexes are substances in which a metal is bound to organic molecules, and their key feature is that their electronic states can be designed in many different ways. The lab synthesizes complexes suited to its research goals and investigates their properties through various spectroscopic measurements and detailed analysis. Its research themes are wide-ranging, from mysteries related to the origin of life to molecules useful for environmental cleanup, medicine, and health.
