Research outline:
Nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene have attracted considerable attention due to their unique and practically useful physical properties, which completely differ from"bulk" materials. Our laboratory promotes research to create novel functionalities from nanomaterials by manipulating their structures and applying them to future nanoelectronics. Our fabrication processes, which utilize originally designed apparatuses such as multi-temperature zone CVD and solar furnace for ultrahigh temperature processes, are constructed by combining top-down and self-organized bottom-up approaches based on a fundamental understanding of atomic processes on surfaces.
