About the Laboratory
Our laboratory conducts research in the field of electrical and electronic engineering, focusing on electrostatic micro-scale technologies. We aim to bridge fundamental theory and practical applications.
Research Themes
-
Theme 1: Bio-related Applications
We investigate the dielectric properties of bacteria, viruses, exosomes, intracellular organelles, and DNA, and develop electrostatic-based technologies for sensing, diagnosis, evaluation, and separation.
-
Theme 2: Micro- and Nano-material-based Sensors
We develop fabrication techniques for sensors, such as gas sensors, by electrostatically manipulating micro- and nano-scale materials including carbon nanotubes.
-
Theme 3: Functional Composite Materials
We study the development of high-performance composite materials by electrostatically aligning nano-materials dispersed in polymer matrices.
-
Theme 4: Discharge Plasma and High-voltage Applications
We conduct research on discharge plasma and high-voltage applications, including sterilization technologies using plasma discharges.
