Research fields

Our research focuses mainly on developing novel magnetic materials and their composites with multiple functionalities. More specifically, our research actities are intended to develop and optimize the synthesis process of multifunctional magnetic nanoparticles, magnetic nanowire arrays, and magnetic composites with carbon materials such as carbon microcoils and to investigate their structure-property relationships toward their industrial applications in the future. The recent research projects we have include synhesis and characterization of ""magneto-fluorescence"" garnet nanoparticles, magnetic alloy catalysts, electron-beam growth of hard magnet thin films, fabrication of soft magnetic nanowire arrays, and development of heusler alloy nanoparticles.
We provide member students with opportunities to get involved in their assigned projects as much as they wish and to learn individually through their work. The students may be aware in the process that they need some patience or careful consideration. All their experience through discoveries and achievements in research should help them eventually gain confidence. And such a process mustl be most valuable for their future career development as a professional. A good combination of research and education should come along with a good sense of humor. Work hard and enjoy!
