Hideaki Fujita, Professor
0 student voices
The Fujita-Sano Lab researches power electronics, which converts the voltage, current, frequency, and other properties of electricity. Rather than relying on device performance, the lab aims to make power conversion equipment highly efficient, high-performance, and compact through circuit configurations and control methods. Power electronics is used in a wide range of fields, including power generation, power transmission, railways, electric vehicles, and home appliances. The lab is a member of the 'Power Electronics Lab,' which is run jointly by multiple faculty members. The experimental rooms and seminars are shared, while research supervision of students is provided by each faculty member.
Marie Tabaru, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Tabaru Lab studies "acoustic morphology," which uses sound waves to investigate the shape and properties of materials. The lab focuses on the heterogeneous structures found in many kinds of materials, measuring their shapes and turning them into images. By building ultrasonic devices and systems and carrying out numerical analysis, the lab develops the foundations of measurement technology, aiming for applications in medicine, agriculture, musical instruments, and industry. The lab also conducts joint research with other universities, companies, and physicians.
Jiro Hirokawa, Professor
0 student voices
The Hirokawa Lab studies planar antennas with new structures not found anywhere else in the world. Working with high-frequency radio waves known as microwaves and millimeter waves, the lab has proposed low-loss waveguides and circuits that switch the direction of radio waves. Designed antennas are prototyped at the frequencies where they will actually be used, and verified with measurement facilities specialized for planar antennas, such as an anechoic chamber.
Hiroaki Iino, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Iino Lab studies large-area thin-film semiconductors for imaging devices such as displays. In particular, the lab focuses on "liquid-crystalline organic semiconductors," in which molecules spontaneously assemble and align. A key feature is that high-quality semiconductor films can be formed even with simple coating methods. The group handles everything from materials development to property evaluation and device applications in-house, with researchers from different backgrounds, such as electrical engineering, chemistry, and physics, working together.
Mutsuko Hatano, Specially Appointed Professor
0 student voices
The Hatano-Iwasaki Lab studies "diamond electronics" using diamond. The lab builds quantum sensors that measure magnetic fields with extreme sensitivity by exploiting the quantum properties of tiny defects inside diamond. The lab also studies quantum light sources and quantum memories for quantum networks. The lab covers everything from materials and physical properties to devices and systems in one integrated effort, aiming to create new value by merging different fields.
Masahiro Watanabe, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Watanabe Lab studies high-performance information-processing devices based on new physics enabled by nanotechnology. The lab also aims to realize lasers built on silicon that can be integrated together with optical and electronic components. The key is structures that control different materials, namely metals, insulators, and semiconductors, at nanometer dimensions with atomic-level junctions in mind. The lab investigates how electrons are transported in these structures and how they interact with light, and clarifies the principles and structures of devices that can reach their ultimate performance limits.
Shun'Ichiro Ohmi, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Ohmi Lab studies transistors with new structures. The electronic devices around us are built by integrating a very large number of transistors made of silicon. Using thin films of high-k and ferroelectric materials, the lab creates extremely small silicon devices, flexible organic semiconductor devices, and memory that retains data even when the power is turned off.
Kuniyuki Kakushima, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Kakushima Lab researches the fabrication of semiconductor devices with high performance and low power consumption. Semiconductor devices have operated by exploiting the properties of interfaces where different kinds of materials meet. The lab devises processes that bring out the full inherent function of those interfaces, and builds prototype devices to verify them. The devices it handles are power devices, which convert electric power efficiently, and solar cells with higher conversion efficiency.
Takahiro Aoyagi, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Aoyagi Lab studies electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), as well as radio wave propagation and wireless communication. The lab also investigates how radio waves propagate around and inside the human body, and conducts research aimed at healthcare and medical applications. It also works on education in electrical and electronic engineering that incorporates elements of art. The lab belongs to the wave and communications group in electrical and electronic engineering, and collaborates with labs in the Department of Transdisciplinary Science and Engineering.
Yuya Shoji, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Shoji Lab studies photonic integrated circuits, which combine optical circuits on a single chip. Aiming for new functions and high performance not seen before, the lab works on research related to photonics and spintronics. Using the magneto-optical effect, the lab builds devices such as optical isolators, optical switches, and circuits that perform AI computation with light.
