Center for Frontier Science, Chiba University
ProfessorThe LEDs and solar cells we use in everyday life are based on a fundamental electronic device known as a diode. My research focuses on advancing diodes into more functional and socially beneficial technologies. Achieving this requires a deep understanding of charge transport within devices. To this end, I investigate the electronic states of materials and use these insights to design next-generation devices. In addition to my research, I am also involved in managing the Frontier Science Program (FSP), an early-admission initiative that allows gifted students to enroll at Chiba University before graduating from high school.
