Research Groups & Research Areas
-
Quantum Physical
Based on quantum mechanics, which represent the backbone of modern physics, this area conducts research on the behavior of electrons in a substance and the various properties of the substance. You will learn about the mechanisms of high temperature superconductivity, the spin dynamics of electrons, and the properties of quantum liquids.
Itou Research Group / Miyajima Research Group / Miyakawa Research Group / Saitoh Research Group / Tohyama Research Group
-
Mathematical and Statistical Physics
In this area, we build physical and mathematical models of various phenomena and systems to unveil the mechanisms behind their behavior, and predict how they will behave. We deal with the movements of the brain as an aggregate of neural cells, and collective behavior phenomena of humans and animals.
Araki Research Group / Okamura-Iijima Research Group / Sumino Research Group
-
Advanced Device
This area searches for new devices utilizing physical phenomena to create or accumulate energy, or to process or store information. You will learn about light-energy conversion by semiconductors, the conversion of vibration or shock into electricity by piezoelectric materials, the storage of information by use of ferroelectric materials, and the accumulation of energy using ion conductors.
