Kali Prasanna Nayak, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Nayak Lab studies quantum interactions between light and matter using optical fibers with a waist thinner than the wavelength of light (nanofibers). The lab works on developing a quantum interface between photons guided in the fiber and single atoms trapped by laser cooling. The lab aims to build a foundation for quantum photonics assembled entirely from optical fibers, so that it can be used as a component of quantum processors and in a form that connects easily to quantum networks. Lab visits are accepted at any time, and inquiries can also be made in Japanese.
Kenichi Nakagawa, Professor
0 student voices
The Nakagawa Lab studies laser cooling and trapping techniques, which use laser light to control the motion of atoms, and the application of the resulting cold atoms to quantum technologies. Quantum technologies seek to overcome the limits of conventional technologies by exploiting the distinctive properties of quantum mechanics; examples include quantum cryptography, quantum computing, and quantum sensors. Laser-cooled atoms at temperatures below 100 μK show pronounced quantum-mechanical properties, so the lab studies quantum simulators and quantum inertial sensors that use them.
Jin Nakamura, Professor
0 student voices
The Jin Nakamura Lab is a condensed matter physics lab that experimentally investigates the properties of materials, focusing on superconductivity and magnetism. The lab studies superconductivity and magnetism realized by implanting various elements and molecules into diamond and graphite. The lab experimentally covers everything from sample preparation to structural and physical-property characterization, and uses external research institutions such as synchrotron radiation facilities to observe electronic states. The lab also studies intermetallic compounds in which localized 4f electrons and itinerant 3d electrons coexist and both contribute to magnetism, and magnetic materials using Mössbauer spectroscopy with unstable nuclei as probes.
Nobuyuki Nakamura, Professor
0 student voices
The Nobuyuki Nakamura Lab conducts experimental research in atomic physics using highly charged ions. Highly charged ions are ions that carry a large positive charge because many electrons have been removed from the atom by ionization. Using one of the world's leading highly charged ion sources, the lab also carries out joint research with institutions such as the National Institute for Fusion Science and the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan. The lab welcomes visits from students, not only third-year students but also first- and second-year students.
Haruka Tanji, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Haruka Tanji Lab conducts experimental research in cavity quantum electrodynamics (Cavity QED), a field in which the quantum-mechanical properties of light appear prominently through interaction with matter. The lab confines laser-cooled gaseous atoms (tens of μK) inside an optical cavity to induce strong interactions between atoms and photons, and its research is based on controlling the quantum states of light and atoms. Through two approaches, developing "quantum light sources" and controlling matter with extremely weak light, the lab aims to create new quantum technologies. Recently, the lab has also begun observing the faint light emitted by living organisms.
Naruo Sasaki, Professor
0 student voices
The Sasaki Lab (Nanotribology Lab) studies friction from the world of atoms at the nanoscale. Using supercomputers and workstations, the lab investigates atomic-scale friction and the design of environmentally friendly, energy-saving molecular machines through theory and numerical computation. The lab has its sights set on developing artificial molecular machines by assembling biomimetic nanoscale components. The lab says its research is accessible to anyone, whether they like physics, chemistry, biology, or earth science.
Yoko Miyamoto, Professor
0 student voices
The Miyamoto Lab takes optics and quantum optics as its research keywords and studies optical measurements and the instruments used for them. The lab presents its research at venues such as the Physical Society of Japan, the Optical Society of Japan, and the Quantum Information Technology study group. The Miyamoto Lab is a cooperating lab of the Laser Center and holds joint rinko reading seminars with the Watanabe Lab.
Nobuhito Kokubo, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Kokubo Lab searches for new solid-state properties through real-space measurements using superconducting thermal and magnetic microscopes. The lab develops superconducting sensors that detect extremely weak magnetic fields and heat, and low-temperature thermal and magnetic microscopes that use them. With these microscopes, the lab investigates the frictional dynamics of magnetic flux quanta (vortices) and unusual low-dimensional electronic properties.
Yukiyasu Ozeki, Professor
0 student voices
The Ozeki Lab studies statistical physics, using simulation to investigate the collective behavior that emerges from large numbers of interacting elements. The lab uses computers to analyze phase transitions that occur when atoms and molecules come together. Its main research theme is the study and application of powerful methods that remain usable even when interactions are complex. In the lab, members write programs in Linux terminals and run large-scale calculations, also using the supercomputer of the Institute for Solid State Physics at the University of Tokyo.
Kana Iwakuni, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Iwakuni Lab develops laser sources, including optical frequency combs, and spectroscopic methods to explore the world of molecules. It aims to open up a new world of molecules that goes beyond classical precision molecular spectroscopy. Spectroscopy is the observation of the response of matter (atoms and molecules) that results from its interaction with electromagnetic waves. Analyzing the spectral structure obtained by spectroscopy of atoms and molecules reveals their internal structure.
