The lab uses synchrotron X-rays to visualize electrons in materials at the nanoscale.

The lab, known as the Synchrotron Nanostructure Visualization research field, uses synchrotron X-rays to visualize the state of electrons in materials at the nanoscale. Its goal is to establish design guidelines for developing materials with new functions. The lab independently develops measurement technologies and analysis methods that take advantage of the properties of synchrotron X-rays, and applies them to a wide range of new functional materials, from hard materials to soft matter. On the lab's website, the lab is introduced under the name "Takata Lab."

The lab observes the shapes of molecular orbitals and chemical reactions through electron scattering.

The Takahashi Lab (Quantum Electron Science research field) conducts research that experimentally observes the wave functions of isolated molecules in the gas phase. Using electron momentum spectroscopy, which uses the scattering of high-speed electrons, the lab observes in momentum space the shapes of molecular orbitals, which determine the reactivity and functions of molecules. The lab also studies molecules in the middle of chemical reactions and the three-dimensional behavior of electrons when they collide with molecules. Its goals are original research in molecular science and the training of students and young researchers who will lead the next generation.

A lab that explores the properties of light-emitting semiconductors, from crystal growth to devices.

The Chichibu Lab (Quantum Optoelectronics Division) studies the physical properties of wide-bandgap compound semiconductors. The wide-bandgap compound semiconductors under study are expected to be applied to deep-ultraviolet light-emitting devices and to polariton lasers, which combine the functions of light and excitons. The lab can carry out everything from crystal growth and processing to prototype device fabrication, and has many instruments for optical characterization. The lab belongs to the Institute of Multidisciplinary Research for Advanced Materials, Tohoku University, and is a cooperative laboratory of the Department of Applied Physics, Graduate School of Engineering.

A joint research chair applying spintronic magnetic sensors to medicine.

The lab aims to develop medical applications of magnetic sensors based on tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) elements, known as TMR sensors. With support from Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and Spin Sensing Factory Inc., the lab was established in the Graduate School of Engineering, Tohoku University, on January 1, 2022. The lab is staffed by faculty members with knowledge of medicine as well as engineering, and conducts research by combining the three perspectives of engineering, medicine, and the pharmaceutical industry.
