RESEARCH
Our department, MATERIALS SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, tackles the development
of advanced materials that have improved performance and useful functions.
The main research themes of the laboratories are shown below. Please click
the relevant lab if you would like more information.
Fundamental knowledge on physics of electrons and atoms is indispensable
for inventing completely new materials for electronics.
We are doing research and education of applied materials science from the
viewpoint of condensed matter physics, in close cooperation with MATERIALS
ENGINEERING group.

We develop novel materials with new functions through research and education
concerning the control of substance surfaces and hybridization of materials.
Especially, our research targets environmentally compatible materials,
biodegradable materials, and biomaterials. Materials evaluation is also
indispensable for the practical use of developed materials.
Our research and education covers the entire process from development to
evaluation and production.
