Laboratory/research office |
Laboratory of Advanced Energy Nanomaterials Recent progress of nanotechnologies in observation techniques and fabrication processes allows us to address novel electric and photonic properties of nanomaterials, which properties are directly derived from their size and structure. By controlling size and structure of the nanomaterials, we develop designed photonic metamaterials for high-efficient energy devices, aiming to solve the global and local energy issues. |
