Chiaki Terashima, Professor
0 student voices
The Terashima Lab studies low-temperature plasma at low pressure, at atmospheric pressure, and in liquids. In particular, the lab seeks to understand and control plasma generated inside liquids, and applies it to advanced chemical processes and to the synthesis of new materials. Plasma is the fourth state of matter after solid, liquid, and gas, a high-energy state in which ions and electrons move freely. With these processes and materials, the lab aims for a sustainable, circular society, and is also working to make the technology usable in space, including on the Moon.
Takahiro Gunji, Professor
0 student voices
The Gunji-Yamamoto Lab studies the synthesis of materials such as organic-inorganic hybrid materials, polysiloxanes, ceramics, and metal complexes. The research page lists synthesis methods such as the sol-gel method and the precursor method, as well as inorganic polymers and metalloxanes, as keywords. The lab began operating in April 2024 as the Gunji-Yamamoto Lab.
Koji Arimitsu, Professor
0 student voices
The Arimitsu Lab studies organic materials chemistry, focusing on functions that appear in response to stimuli such as light and heat, and on amplifying those functions. The lab designs and synthesizes a variety of functional organic molecules and polymers and evaluates their functions; every member handles everything from organic synthesis to applications in functional materials. One line of research is developing highly sensitive photopolymers by multiplying, through reactions, the acids and bases generated by light. The lab also actively accepts joint research with companies.
Kenjiro Fujimoto, Professor
0 student voices
The Fujimoto Lab studies the exploration and enhancement of functional inorganic materials (ceramics), centered on environmental purification materials and energy materials. Besides creating new materials, the lab also conducts fundamental research that clarifies how materials are synthesized and what their properties are. Based on the concept of combinatorial chemistry, the lab is developing high-throughput synthesis, evaluation, and analysis technologies. In the lab, each member is in charge of a different material system and works on their own theme.
Takeshi Kondo, Professor
0 student voices
Kondo Lab studies the creation and application of novel functional diamond materials. Diamond is extremely stable both physically and chemically, and it also has excellent biocompatibility. Specializing in electrochemistry and materials chemistry, the lab develops materials that make use of these properties, aiming at applications that help solve societal challenges. The lab works on boron-doped diamond powder, as well as electrodes for electrochemical sensors and electrolysis.
Hideki Sakai, Professor
0 student voices
The Hideki Sakai–Kenichi Sakai Lab studies how to precisely control the properties of the surfaces and interfaces of substances in order to create new materials and new functions. Aiming to "control interfaces at will," the lab makes the development of novel surfactants and the evaluation of their physical properties a major pillar of its research. The lab is also developing functional materials with various nanostructures, such as titania, silica, and hydroxyapatite, using nanosized molecular assemblies formed by surfactants as reaction fields. The lab covers a wide range from basic to applied research, and also carries out joint research with companies. The content introduced here is based on the lab's website as of around 2022.
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.
