1. Development of materials digital transformation approach and new electronic functional materials and devices |
Representative: Toshio Kamiya
Combining data analysis as well as materials simulations and experimental materials research has become important to accelerate the development of new materials and devices. Thus, it is an urgent issue to build a new materials digital transformation system (MDX). In this project, we welcome ideas of a part of such MDX approach, its total design, or related issues.

2. Dynamics of quantum superposition state in solids |
Representative: Kazutaka Nakamura
Quantum superposition states are unique to quantum mechanics and closely related to quantum coherence and entanglement, which are the basis of new quantum technologies such as quantum information and communication. However, the quantum superposition states rapidly lost in solids, and then ultrafast time-resolved measurements are required to elucidate their dynamics. In this research project, we will conduct time-domain spectroscopy on the quantum superposition states in electronic and phonon states using femtosecond optical pulses. We also investigate the dynamics using quantum theory.

3. Seismic Design for Functional Continuity of Building Structures |
|
Representative: Shoichi Kishiki
Building structures are required to perform multiple roles, and in order to reduce economic losses due to earthquakes, it is necessary to establish seismic design for functionally continuity. In addition, it is necessary to clarify the seismic performances and damage state of not only structural members, but also non-structural components and building equipment to provide better performance. In this research, we will conduct experiments using dynamic actuator or bi-directional loading system on non-structural components and building equipment. Based on these results, seismic design to mitigate damage will be discussed.

4. Development of New Functionalities in Abundant Element Materials |
|
Representative: Hidenori Hiramatsu
Development of new functionalities with abundant element systems is not only important but also timely. The functionalities that should be targeted mainly include electronics device functionalities. Bulk synthesis and film growth study, structural, electronic and magnetic characterization, and theoretical study are all relevant for the present project.
