Shinichi Kimura, Professor
0 student voices
The Kimura Lab studies systems technology and autonomous control technology, mainly for space systems and robots. Placing importance on real-world applications, the lab advances its research on both the hardware and software sides. Its work includes modular robots that keep operating even after failures, and the development of ultra-compact cameras for use in space.

Mutsumi Sugiyama, Professor
0 student voices
The Sugiyama Lab studies the materials used in semiconductor optical devices, working to elucidate their physical properties and to develop devices with new functions. Semiconductor optical devices fall into two basic types: solar cells, which absorb light and convert it into electrical energy, and LEDs, which convert electrical energy into light. The research centers on inexpensive, safe solar cells made with chalcogenide materials such as CIGS-based ones, and on oxide wide-bandgap semiconductors such as NiO and ITO. The lab also actively pursues research that combines semiconductors with other fields, such as building systems for a "new agriculture" for the age of IoT and ICT.

Kenichi Higuchi, Professor
0 student voices
The Higuchi Lab studies new elemental technologies and system protocols to contribute to the advancement of wireless communication systems. It aims to realize the ultra-high-speed, high-capacity communication, ultra-reliable low-latency communication, and simultaneous connection of massive numbers of terminals required of wireless communications in 5G and beyond. Lab members divide up the study of a wide range of interrelated elemental technologies.

Hajime Nagata, Professor
0 student voices
The Nagata Lab studies ferroelectric and piezoelectric ceramics, which convert between electrical and mechanical energy. Current ferroelectric and piezoelectric ceramics contain large amounts of lead. The lab develops materials for environmentally friendly, lead-free ferroelectric ceramics. It also works to extend them to a variety of functional electronic devices, such as sensors, actuators, resonators, and ultrasonic devices.

Noboru Katayama, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Katayama Lab researches technologies related to energy, including hydrogen and fuel cells. Research topics include hydrogen storage using hydrogen-absorbing alloys and energy management using deep reinforcement learning. Other topics include diagnosing energy devices using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and fabricating catalyst layers for polymer electrolyte fuel cells using electrospray deposition.

Junji Kondoh, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Kondoh Lab mainly conducts research on the large-scale integration of photovoltaic and wind power generation into power systems. These forms of generation have characteristics that conventional large-scale centralized generation lacks, such as widely dispersed generation facilities and output that fluctuates significantly with solar irradiance and wind speed. Because power systems have not been designed or operated with large-scale integration of distributed generation in mind, there are concerns that various problems will arise. The lab studies control of power consumption on the demand side and more advanced functions for power conditioners, among other topics.

Unregistered Unregistered, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Unregistered Lab researches high-frequency integrated circuits that operate in the millimeter-wave and terahertz bands. Realizing cyber-physical systems requires ultra-high-speed wireless transceivers and various sensors that capture real-world information. The lab works on integrated circuits that make such wireless transceivers and sensors possible.

Yuka Takagi, Lecturer
0 student voices
The Takagi Lab researches the development of materials that promote well-being (a good physical, mental, and social state). The lab works on research and development of materials for energy storage devices and for supporting smooth information and communications. The lab proposes research and development that focuses on the structure, arrangement, and fractality of material microstructures.
Mitsuhiko Shionoya, Professor
0 student voices
The Shionoya Lab studies the precise synthesis of supramolecular metal complexes inspired by living organisms, and the exploration of their functions. The research keywords include supramolecular chemistry, coordination chemistry, bioinorganic chemistry, and organometallic chemistry. Currently, the lab designs and synthesizes metal ion clusters with a single atom at the center, and investigates how their structures relate to their catalytic reactions and luminescence properties. The lab is located in the Research Institute for Science and Technology, part of the Organization for Research Promotion at Tokyo University of Science.
Masashi Nojima, Lecturer
0 student voices
The Nojima Lab studies materials fabrication using ion beams, as well as measurement techniques for investigating the local stress properties of materials. The lab's introduction states, "Without innovation in fabrication and measurement technology, there is no cutting-edge research." The lab is developing a mass spectrometer based on a new principle, the rotating electric field mass spectrometer, and is working on selecting a target element and forming it into an ion beam. The lab also evaluates the mechanism of initial fracture in carbon fiber composites and the interfacial strength of semiconductor encapsulation packages.
