Shinya Yoshioka, Professor
0 student voices
Yoshioka Lab pursues open-ended research centered on structural colors, optical adaptations, and biomimetics in living organisms. Structural color is color produced not by absorption by pigments, but by fine structures on the scale of the wavelength of light that cause optical phenomena such as interference and scattering. The lab's website presents examples such as nanostructures in the scales of butterfly wings that produce brilliance, and protrusions on the surface of moth compound eyes that suppress light reflection. The website also raises familiar questions, such as why insects can walk freely on walls and ceilings.
Ryuji Okazaki
0 student voices
The Okazaki Lab studies how materials conduct electricity and heat, and their properties related to energy conversion (functional properties). The lab investigates the unusual electronic properties of strongly correlated electron systems such as oxides, organic salts, and rare-earth compounds. It also studies how electric current flows when light is shone on a material or when a strong electric field is applied, exploring the nonequilibrium properties of electrons. The lab is a condensed matter physics lab at Tokyo University of Science, established in 2015.
Takayoshi Komura, Professor
0 student voices
The Komura Lab's research rests on two pillars: astrophysics using observational data from X-ray astronomy satellites, and the development of imaging sensors used for space observation. The lab studies the physics of extreme environments dominated by ultra-high temperatures, ultra-strong magnetic fields, and ultra-strong gravity, such as black holes, neutron stars, and galaxy clusters. Having both the perspective to interpret observational data and an understanding of the instruments that produce it is presented as a distinctive feature of the lab. Requests for lab visits and consultations about enrolling in the lab are accepted by email.
Nobuyuki Sawado, Professor
0 student voices
The Sawado Lab uses topological solitons as a key to studying phenomena in particle physics, cosmology, and condensed matter. Topological solitons are a concept used to describe a wide range of phenomena, including the properties of elementary particles, black holes and braneworlds, and the properties of superconductors and semimetals. The lab investigates these using analytical methods and numerical simulations.
Masafumi Tamura, Professor
0 student voices
The Tamura Lab studies the electrical and magnetic properties of materials made of organic molecules. Some organic materials show remarkable physical properties, such as superconductivity and ferromagnetism. Among the countless organic molecules, many functions remain unknown. The lab aims to use new molecules to discover and explain unknown physical phenomena. Covering a wide range from condensed matter physics to synthetic chemistry, the lab pursues its research without being bound by disciplinary boundaries.
Hiroshi Yaguchi, Professor
0 student voices
The Yaguchi Lab lists solid-state physics, low-temperature physics, and superconductivity as its research fields. Its news items mention research that measured the upper critical field of iron-based superconductors using pulsed high magnetic fields, research that investigated quantum oscillations in materials such as YbB12, and experiments using ultrasound. Graduate students work on synthesizing FeSe-based materials and Fe(Te, S).
Masaki Ishitsuka, Professor
0 student voices
The Ishitsuka Lab conducts experimental particle physics, studying elementary particles and the universe through neutrino observation. Its research topics include neutrino oscillation and the search for proton decay. Assistant Professor Hideyoshi Ozaki is also involved in the search for neutrinoless double beta decay and in detector development for the Hyper-Kamiokande experiment. The lab's website has links to the Super-Kamiokande, T2K, and Hyper-Kamiokande experiments.
Yoshiyuki Fukumoto, Professor
0 student voices
The Fukumoto Lab theoretically studies quantum many-body systems of electrons on a lattice. Electrons have two degrees of freedom, charge and spin, and a system in which the charge degree of freedom is frozen is called a spin system. Spin systems provide fundamental models of magnetic materials. Electron systems that have both degrees of freedom call for deep understanding because of their relevance to high-temperature superconductivity and related phenomena. The lab uses these systems as its main subjects to elucidate and explore physical properties.
Takuma Akimoto, Professor
0 student voices
The Akimoto Lab studies universal (statistical) laws underlying complex phenomena, focusing on nonequilibrium statistical physics, nonlinear science, and theoretical biophysics. In particular, it focuses on universal laws of long-time averages in anomalous transport and nonstationary phenomena (infinite ergodic theory), and pursues this research through probability theory and numerical simulation. The lab encourages students to take the lead in everything from designing research and setting problems to building theory. The lab's website introduces it under the name "Nonequilibrium and Nonlinear Physics Lab."
