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.
Recent Topics of Interests
・ Developing materials that enable efficient and controllable charge transport in diodes
・ Establishing device-design guidelines for integrating multiple functionalities into a single diode structure
・ Elucidating doping mechanisms essential for charge control
Motto in Research or in Life:
Cherish coincidences and encounters, and enjoy everything along the way.
Hobby / Holiday:
Sauna, running, and cooking.

ProfessorIn the realm of organic electronics, particularly in applications like organic EL displays, I utilize electron spectroscopy to explore the fundamental electronic structure. This involves deciphering intricate details like energy levels, electron arrangement, and packing configurations.
At the same time, my research extends to the intrinsic electrical properties of elements, aiming to enhance the performance of organic electronics through a comprehensive approach that integrates spectroscopy and elemental studies.
Engaging in multiple fields such as physics, chemistry, electronic engineering, inorganic materials, and organic materials, I pioneer unique measurement methods and devices unparalleled anywhere else in the world, thereby contributing to original research.
Beyond my research pursuits, I am actively engaged in Chiba University’s ‘Frontier Science Program,’ an academic acceleration initiative.
Recent Topics of Interests:
・Investigating the mechanism behind the spontaneous development of orientation polarization when molecules used in organic EL devices form a film
・Elucidating the mechanism that leads to the generation of frictional electricity
・Identifying the true nature of weak levels within the band gap of various materials, including inorganic, organic, and biomaterials
・Managing an academic acceleration program at Chiba University
Motto in Research or in Life:
Develop a unique device found nowhere else in the world and conduct original research.
