In the field of metal physics and materials, the Nano Metallic Materials Lab studies the physical properties of metallic materials with nanostructures. The Researcher Directory lists metal physics, surfaces and interfaces, and nanostructured materials as its research keywords. Its recent presentations cover high-entropy alloys, amorphous alloys, silver nanoparticles, and more. The lab's website introduces it as the "Tanimoto Lab."

Since fiscal 2025, the Inorganic Energy and Environmental Materials Lab has shifted from an experimental science lab to a computational science lab. It no longer conducts experiments and now operates as a computational science lab. The lab performs first-principles calculations on cathode and anode materials for batteries to elucidate their physical properties. Its experimental research ended at the end of November 2025, and most of the experimental equipment has been cleared away. The lab's website introduces it as the "Suzuki Lab."

The Quantum Solid State Physics Lab aims to develop quantum materials from the perspectives of topology and strong correlation, and to open up new electronics and quantum functionality. Quantum materials are materials in which the quantum-mechanical properties of electrons show up in their physical properties; superconductors are one example. In addition to synthesizing transition metal compounds and precisely measuring their properties, the lab aims to explore new electronic, magnetic, and optical properties using terahertz and infrared spectroscopy and synchrotron X-ray scattering. Lab tours are accepted at any time.

The Iron and Steel Materials Lab (Koyano Lab) studies iron and steel materials, including nitrogen steel, which is iron with nitrogen added. As the only iron and steel materials lab at the University of Tsukuba, it has four keywords: nitrogen, high magnetic fields, low temperatures, and collaborative research. The lab is part of the Cryogenics Division of the Research Facility Center for Science and Technology, and it carries out its research using the division's low-temperature measurement equipment and gas-related facilities and expertise. The lab accepts graduate students only if they are fluent in Japanese, have earned credits in solid-state physics and quantum mechanics, and come from a materials-related department.

The Crystal Physics Lab uses quantum beams to study the crystal structures and magnetic structures of various alloys, mainly multicomponent ordered alloys. The lab aims to explain the unusual physical phenomena that these materials show from a structural point of view. Its research themes fall into three areas: alloys and metals, organic-inorganic hybrid compounds, and oligosaccharides. Since fiscal 2023, the lab has been in charge of the management and development of FONDER, a neutron four-circle diffractometer at JRR-3, the research reactor of the Japan Atomic Energy Agency.

The Superconductivity Physics and Engineering Lab conducts broad research on superconductors, from their fundamental properties to their applications. Its current work centers on developing terahertz-wave devices that use single crystals of the high-temperature superconductor Bi2212. The lab carries out this research in collaboration with the Minami Lab, which belongs to the same Materials Physics and Engineering major. The lab invites anyone interested in device fabrication, crystal growth, materials synthesis, or measurement of fundamental properties to get in touch.

The Molecular Assembly Nanomaterials Lab creates supramolecular nanostructures from π-conjugated molecules (small organic molecules and polymers) and biomolecules, and studies their optical and electronic functions and energy conversion. In particular, the lab focuses on how functions emerge when the assembled structure, arrangement, and orientation of molecules are controlled. The lab also works on fabricating nanodevices using the molecular assemblies it creates. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Yamamoto-Kushida Lab."

The Functional Polymer Design Lab conducts research on designing functional polymers and metal complexes, drawing on the principles of organometallic chemistry. Its research themes include polymer synthesis using metal-containing catalysts, materials that make use of sulfur resources, and the design of materials aimed at environmental protection and a recycling-oriented society. In recent years, the lab has published papers on the synthesis of conjugated polymers and the development of palladium catalysts.

The Advanced Functional Materials Lab studies materials whose optical, magnetic, and electrical properties switch in response to external stimuli such as light, pressure, and temperature. Its main subjects are metal complexes and metal oxides, and the lab handles everything itself, from synthesis to measurement of physical properties and theoretical calculations. The lab's research keywords are "phase transition," "phase control," "bistability," and "switching." The lab conducts research using elements that are friendly to the global environment and to people.

The Biomaterials Lab conducts research based on polymer chemistry, aiming to create new materials that can contribute to medicine and the environment. By designing molecularly organized drugs that use the self-assembly of polymers, the lab aims to develop a range of drugs, including treatments for Parkinson's disease, liver disease, and diabetes. The lab is also designing devices useful in medicine and building diagnostic technologies. On the lab's website, the lab is introduced under the name "Koda Lab."
