To accelerate the innovation of materials, advanced analysis technologies holds the key to the realization of "super smart society". Our aim is to build an international research center for the development of the superior analytical techniques for advanced materials. Firstly we promote the development of the core competence techniques in the advanced materials analysis domain, and develop joint studies in connection with the research projects in NIMS and in the world. Secondly we show a mediation function between academia and industry.
Lastly, as a core organization of the national innovation system, we play a leading role of the open innovation including personnel training, research and development platform, and the international standardization in the field of advanced materials characterization.
