The Atomic Electronics Unit conducts research on new devices based on atomic and ionic movement, and on their physical and chemical reactions

The Atomic Electronics Unit carries out research on and development of new devices, which devices utilize the fact that the characteristics of materials change greatly as a result of the movement and reaction of just a few atoms and ions.
In order to create novel electronic information and energy devices, it is required to clarify the atomic/ionic movement that forms the foundation of such new devices, and the details of the physical/chemical reactions involved. Further collaboration between basic research and application development is essential for the materialization of the aforementioned clarification. The Atomic Electronics Unit will aggressively promote such collaboration, including joint research with other institutions.
