Professor / SUEMATSU Hisayuki
If you are a "work hard, play hard" person, this is your place because so is our professor. In study, he requires student's effortness and supports students diligently. With hobbies such as fishing, road bike, and glider, he is very excited to participate in activities with students.

Research Content

At EDI center of this laboratory, the world's top-level research environment with electron microscopes, accelerators, etc. make it possible to carry out the fabrication and characterization of new materials in the world.

With major research contents including preparation of ultrafine particles by pulsed wire discharge, synthesis of superconductors by ultrahigh pressure method, etc., we have sent out various new materials to the world.

Moreover, by using the particle accelerator and the pulse electron accelerator, we have conducted composition analyses and particle irradiation experiments, as a result, contributed to material manufacturers, medical institutions, domestic and foreign nuclear research institutes.

A Day in the Lab

With the slogan "laboratory is family", in various activities such as traveling, sports, fishing, cooking, members are deeply tied together. In addition, laboratory's characteristic is the rich international atmosphere with international students from various countries and Japanese students studying abroad. There is no core time. Research is conducted on their own with a progressing report every week.

One day in the laboratory is like:

9:00 Good morning to the laboratory. Lightly chatting and turning the motivated switch ON!
9:30 is time to start an experiment, isn't it?
12:00 -13:00 Lunch and relax time (golf, badminton, gym)
13:00 Well it's time for a fun experiment
18:00 A working hard day finished. Let's go to have some ramen?!
