Hiroshi Akatsuka, Associate Professor
1 student voices
The Akatsuka Lab researches plasma science and engineering, centered on plasma spectroscopy. The lab builds numerical models of how atoms and molecules emit light inside plasma, and combines them with simple spectroscopic measurements to develop methods for determining the state of a plasma. It also does fundamental research on flows of weakly ionized plasma that expand at supersonic speed. This is a field that draws on knowledge of physics, chemistry, mechanical engineering, and electrical engineering, and people from a wide range of departments are active in it.
Hiroyuki Ito, Professor
1 student voices
The Ito Lab studies analog integrated circuit and integrated MEMS technologies, and their applications. Aiming at electronics for sustainable medicine, healthcare, and food production, the lab develops technologies that measure people, animals, and the environment by focusing on "vibration." Centered on silicon integrated circuit technology, the lab pursues higher sensitivity in sensors and lower power consumption in wireless sensors. Alongside its research, the lab also works in parallel on efforts to put the technologies it develops to use in society.
Pham Nam Hai, Professor
1 student voices
The Pham Lab studies materials and devices for spin-based semiconductors, which combine the features of semiconductors and magnetic materials. Semiconductors operate quickly, while magnetic materials can store data without consuming power, so combining the two is expected to yield devices with extremely high energy efficiency. The lab works on "spin device engineering," which spans materials engineering, solid-state physics, and device engineering. The lab is conducting research on SOT-MRAM, a low-power next-generation memory that uses topological insulators, jointly with companies.
Takashi Tomura, Associate Professor
0 student voices
Tomura Lab studies antennas for satellites and wireless power transfer, electromagnetic field analysis, and wireless communication systems. For 6G communications, space communications, Earth observation, and sensing, the lab takes on the invention of new antennas and electromagnetic structures. It creates new antennas by combining electromagnetic field theory with mechanical engineering, such as origami structures, and with materials science. The lab aims to advance basic theory, experimental verification, and real-world applications in good balance.
Shigeru Nakagawa, Professor
0 student voices
The Nakagawa Lab conducts research to realize next-generation computers using light-based technology (photonics). For quantum computers, the lab works on light sources that generate particles of light (photons) one by one at high speed, and on technology for manipulating ions with light. For AI, the lab studies optical resonators as AI hardware that assists CPU computation. The lab's motto is "Encouraging Failure": without fearing failure, it takes on problems that are important but difficult to achieve.
Safumi Suzuki, Professor
0 student voices
The Suzuki Lab researches electronic devices that operate in the terahertz band, a range of electromagnetic waves with very high frequencies. Using nanostructures, the lab draws out the ultimate performance of semiconductors to build devices that operate at terahertz frequencies. The lab also works on terahertz radar using these devices, and on biological and medical applications. The lab aims to break through technological barriers and make terahertz applications a familiar part of everyday life.
Kotaro Kajikawa, Professor
0 student voices
The Kajikawa Lab studies materials that control light and electromagnetic waves, along with methods for designing them. The lab works on cloaking, in which an object is covered with a special material to make it invisible, and on materials that absorb light and radio waves well even when thin. It also develops radiative cooling materials that cool objects without using electricity, and devices that generate power from the resulting temperature difference. Neural networks and genetic algorithms are used to design the materials.
Tomoyuki Miyamoto, Professor
0 student voices
The Miyamoto Lab studies optical wireless power transmission (OWPT) systems, which send electricity to distant devices with beams of light, and the optical devices they require. Light from a source is received by a solar cell attached to the device and converted into electricity. By making power supply wireless, following communication, the lab aims to remove limits on where and when devices can be charged. It works on power supply in many settings, from IoT devices to drones, electric vehicles, and underwater equipment.
Gia Khanh Tran, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Tran Lab studies wireless communication networks that use locations other than the ground, such as drones (UAVs) and satellites. The lab works on millimeter-wave networks between drones, networks that use drones as base stations, and methods for allocating radio resources using AI and reinforcement learning. The lab also studies estimating the positions and sources of radio signals using HAPS, drones, and low Earth orbit satellites. The lab is run together with the Sakaguchi Lab, and the two labs conduct research jointly.
Mana Toma, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Toma Lab studies how to control light with structures at the nanometer scale in order to create new optical elements and biosensing technologies. The lab combines methods from computational science, nanofabrication, materials exploration, device design, and informatics. It aims to make it possible to perform biosensor measurements, which until now could only be done with dedicated instruments, on familiar devices such as smartphones.
