Research Center for Advanced Smart Materials (RCASM)

About Usご挨拶

Technologies in current engineering can be effectively combined with different fields. The resulting novel academic fields can create new, advanced, highly functional smart materials. In particular, RCASM strongly promotes interdisciplinary research between engineering fields and data science, medical science, and agriculture. Materials are synthesized by controlling substances on an atomic level, creating new properties and qualities. The interface effects and quantum effects controlled by nano-scale hetero-structures produce unique, novel functions. For example, RCASM deals with mesoscopic and plasmonic materials, metal biomaterials, radiosensitizers, functional supramolecular hydrogel, and produces various devices for application such as photonic materials and devices, organic thin-film devices, MEMS micro-devices, and ultra-low-power analog and digital circuits.
Additionally, we have started studying material design and synthesis based on artificial intelligent learning theory to create materials we have not yet encountered.
