Professor / SAITOH Hidetoshi
He will help students strictly and gentry with advice from a multifaceted perspective that makes full use of a wide range of research fields. In addition, he is spreading the idea of “Uitemate” to the world as chairman of the society of water rescue and survival research.
Research Content
This laboratory is engaged in research on a wide range of materials such as synthesis and evaluation of various metal oxide films using proprietary technologies with atmospheric chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method and flame deposition method using metal complex and synthesis of diamond like carbon (DLC) film with diverse complex structure and structural analysis and classification with various approaches, Synthesis of porous carbon materials made from waste and evaluation of world's top gas adsorption characteristics and structure. In addition, lots of world's first materials and technologies were existed in this laboratory and we will continue to propose/inform various research results to the world.

A Day in the Lab
The day of our laboratory starts from the morning seminar at 7:50 every morning. Although we start a little earlier than other laboratories, we can do experiments at our own pace because there is no core time. We are mainly discussing of English papers related to research and reporting of research result in the seminar. Students create and present slides on their own and answer questions to solve the problem between them. Students can gain new opinions through collaborative research with companies and join the society and learn the presentation method that is easily transmitted to listeners.
