The properties (functionality) of a solid are determined by the states of electrons (energy, momentum and spin). Clarifying the electronic states experimentally leads to elucidating the origin and\/or mechanism of the functionality and gives the strategy to improve the functionality. We are conducting research to investigate electronic states in materials in detail using advanced electron spectroscopy techniques.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

We focus on the research for the preparation of nanostructured thin films and development of new functional thin films. Self-organized nanostructured films are what we are interested in. As for functional thin films, our target is materials that exhibit superconductivity and metal-insulator transition. We also conduct research to evaluate the quality of the thin films and elucidate the mechanism of function in the films through experiments on the electronic states.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
