Thermal Energy Materials Group
In the 20th century mankind has achieved unprecedented control over the electron, spin, photon, however one of the most important scientific challenges for the 21st century is how to achieve a high degree of control over phonons, or rather thermal energy.
Our group is mainly involved in research on development of cutting edge thermoelectric materials and also fundamental understanding, measurement technology, and control over thermal transport. We are also involved in developing thermoelectric devices which can be used to autonomously power innumerable IoT sensors, and modules for realizing energy saving and zero emission.
Specialized Research Field
1. Development of novel thermoelectric materials




2. Development of measurement technology for thermal transport, and thermoelectric device development

3. Synthesis of novel inorganic materials and properties development
